It is a descriptive, correlational study with cross-sectional and retrospective design. Starting from data about 166 countries and using a correlation matrix, we analyze which indicators of the variables mentioned show a higher correlation index with infant mortality rate; collinearity is found with the cause of mother death and mortality due to communicable diseases. There is positive correlation with total fertility, mortality of adults between age 15 and 60, prevalence of tuberculosis and death by tuberculosis; it is thought that these indicators show social vulnerability. The indicators of education, drinking water and sewer coverage, prevalence of contraceptives and doctors every 10,000 inhabitants function asprotective agents. Gross national income per capita and government health expenditure per capita adjust as logarithms. A multiple regression allows the estimation of infant mortality according to registration rate of women at secondary school, prevalence of contraceptives and sewers. In Argentina there is no correlation between infant mortality and mother death or with provincial health expenditure per capita. El presente estudio tiene por objetivo general analizar el grado de asociación entre la mortalidad infantil y variables sociodemográficas, económicas y medioambientales. Su alcance es descriptivo y correlacional y el diseño retrospectivo transversal. Partiendo de datos de 166 países y mediante una matriz de correlación, analiza que indicadores de las variables mencionadas, presentan mayor índice de correlación con la tasa de mortalidad infantil, se encuentra colinealidad con la razón de muerte materna, y la mortalidad por enfermedades transmisibles. Existe correlación positiva con fecundidad total, mortalidad de adultos entre 15 y 60 años, prevalencia de tuberculosis y muerte por tuberculosis, se presume que estos indicadores revelan vulnerabilidad social. Actúan como agentes protectores, indicadores de educación, cobertura de agua potable y cloacas, prevalencia de anticonceptivos y médicos cada 10.000 habitantes. Ingreso Nacional Bruto per cápita y gasto del gobierno en salud per cápita, ajustan como logaritmo. Una regresión múltiple permite estimar la mortalidad infantil en función de la tasa de matriculación de la mujer a escuela secundaria, prevalencia de anticonceptivos y desagües cloacales. En Argentina no se observa correlación de la mortalidad infantil con la muerte materna, ni con el gasto provincial en salud por habitante. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
