Dynamics of neonatal mortality in Tomsk within the period of 1999—2001 has been analyzed in the article. Analysis has been made according to the T. Kern’s method by G.S. Muchiyev’s and O.G. Frolova’s modification. This method permits to evaluate the dynamics of neonatal mortality from the viewpoint of its averting and gives opportunities to reveal the errors at all stages of medical care of women and new-born children. 170 cases of neonatal deaths have been analyzed. There has been marked the decrease of both early and common neonatal mortality due to avertable reasons. Unavertable death reasons tend to increase due to congenital malformations. Ways of the further decrease of neonatal mortality have been defined.
