An analysis of factors contributing to the risk of delivery-related perinatal death at term.
| Abstract | Death of a baby at the end of a normal pregnancy is a devastating complication for parents. The frequency of such complications due to problems in labour appears to be decreasing but the reasons are unknown. Rates of caesarean delivery have increased over the period of time where death rates have fallen. However, many other changes have taken place as well. This study aims to characterise the factors associated with the risk of death of the baby. Moreover, it seeks to determine why the rates have declined. The study will yield useful information on the factors which are associated with the risk of these events. It will also indicate whether rising rates of caesarean delivery may have contributed to the decline in the frequency of this outcome. The data collected in the Scottish Morbidity Record and the Scottish Stillbirth and Infant Death Enquiry will help address the research questions above. |
