Abstract Introduction Globally, approximately 15 million babies are born before term each year. Of these, more than 1 million die within the first 28 days of their life. Understanding the mortality rate and its predictors during neonatal period among preterm babies is crucial to help designing interventions to avert the situation. This study aimed to determine the neonatal mortality rate and associated factors among preterm babies born in Moshi Municipality, Tanzania. Methodology A prospective cohort study was conducted in three hospitals in Moshi Municipality from December 2016 to May 2017. All live births at gestational age of <37 weeks and those of <24 hours were studied. Babies who died prior to gestation age assessment and those whose mother did not consent were excluded. Cox regression model was used to estimate maternal and fetal factors associated with neonatal mortality. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results A total of 311 of preterm babies were recruited from 265 mothers and were followed for 28 days. The neonatal mortality rate was 6.5deaths per 1,000 preterm live births (95% CI: 4.83-8.61). It was higher among extremely preterm babies compared to very preterm ones (HR: 38.24; 95% CI: 16.62-87.96) versus (HR: 8.01; 95% CI: 3.96-16.20) respectively. Apgar score of <7 at 1st minute (HR: 14.03; 95% CI: 7.27-27.06), respiratory distress syndrome (HR: 8.14; 95% CI: 4.27-15.54) and antepartum hemorrhage (HR: 3.32; 95% CI: 1.49-7.39) were significantly associated with neonatal mortality. Conclusion Preterm birth complication is the major cause of neonatal death in the study setting. Interventions to address the identified risk factors may reduce neonatal mortality among preterm babies.
