Abstract

There are wide disparities in neonatal mortality rates (NMRs, deaths <28 days of life after live birth per 1000 live births) between countries in Europe, indicating potential for improvement. Comparing country-specific patterns of births and deaths with countries with low mortality rates can facilitate the development of effective intervention strategies., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract

Objective To assess changes in caesarean section (CS) rates in Europe from 2015 to 2019 and utilise the Robson Ten Group Classification System (TGCS) to evaluate the contribution of different obstetric populations to overall CS rates and trends. Design Observational study utilising routine birth registry data. Setting A total of 28 European countries. Population Births at ≥22 weeks of gestation in 2015 and 2019. Methods Using a federated model, individual‐level data from routine sources in each country were formatted to a common data model and transformed into anonymised, aggregated data. Main Outcome Measures By country: overall CS rate. For TGCS groups (by country): CS rate, relative size, relative and absolute contribution to overall CS rate. Results Among the 28 European countries, both the CS rates (2015, 16.0%–55.9%; 2019, 16.0%–52.2%) and the trends varied (from −3.7% to +4.7%, with decreased rates in nine countries, maintained rates in seven countries (≤ ± 0.2) and with increasing rates in 12 countries). Using the TGCS (for 17 countries), in most countries labour induction increased (groups 2a and 4a), whereas multiple pregnancies (group 8) decreased. In countries with decreasing overall CS rates, CS tended to decrease across all TGCS groups, whereas in countries with increasing rates, CS tended to increase in most groups. In countries with the greatest increase in CS rates (>1%), the absolute contributions of groups 1 (nulliparous term cephalic singletons, spontaneous labour), 2a and 4a (induction of labour), 2b and 4b (prelabour CS) and 10 (preterm cephalic singletons) to the overall CS rate tended to increase. Conclusions The TGCS shows varying CS trends and rates among countries of Europe. Comparisons between European countries, particularly those with differing trends, could provide insight into strategies to reduce CS without clinical indication., info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Abstract

Background Despite concerns about worsening pregnancy outcomes resulting from healthcare restrictions, economic difficulties and increased stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, preterm birth (PTB) rates declined in some countries in 2020, while stillbirth rates appeared stable. Like other shocks, the pandemic may have exacerbated existing socioeconomic disparities in pregnancy, but this remains to be established. Our objective was to investigate changes in PTB and stillbirth by socioeconomic status (SES) in European countries. Methods The Euro-Peristat network implemented this study within the Population Health Information Research Infrastructure (PHIRI) project. A common data model was developed to collect aggregated tables from routine birth data for 2015–2020. SES was based on mother's educational level or area-level deprivation/maternal occupation if education was unavailable and harmonized into low, medium and high SES. Country-specific relative risks (RRs) of PTB and stillbirth for March to December 2020, adjusted for linear trends from 2015 to 2019, by SES group were pooled using random effects meta-analysis. Results Twenty-one countries provided data on perinatal outcomes by SES. PTB declined by an average 4% in 2020 {pooled RR: 0.96 [95% confidence intervals (CIs): 0.94–0.97]} with similar estimates across all SES groups. Stillbirths rose by 5% [RR: 1.05 (95% CI: 0.99–1.10)], with increases of between 3 and 6% across the three SES groups, with overlapping confidence limits. Conclusions PTB decreases were similar regardless of SES group, while stillbirth rates rose without marked differences between groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Context: International comparisons of the health of mothers and babies provide essential benchmarks for guiding health practice and policy, but statistics are not routinely compiled in a comparable way. These data are especially critical during health emergencies, such as the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The Population Health Information Research Infrastructure (PHIRI) project aimed to promote the exchange of population data in Europe and included a Use Case on perinatal health. Objective: To develop and test a protocol for federated analysis of population birth data in Europe. Methods: The Euro-Peristat network with participants from 31 countries developed a Common Data Model (CDM) and R scripts to exchange and analyse aggregated data on perinatal indicators. Building on recommended Euro-Peristat indicators, complemented by a three-round consensus process, the network specified variables for a CDM and common outputs. The protocol was tested using routine birth data for 2015 to 2020; a survey was conducted assessing data provider experiences and opinions. Results: The CDM included 17 core data items for the testing phase and 18 for a future expanded phase. 28 countries and the four UK nations created individual person-level databases and ran R scripts to produce anonymous aggregate tables. Seven had all core items, 17 had 13-16, while eight had ≤12. Limitations were not having all items in the same database, required for this protocol. Infant death and mode of birth were most frequently missing. Countries took from under a day to several weeks to set up the CDM, after which the protocol was easy and quick to use. Conclusion: This open-source protocol enables rapid production and analysis of perinatal indicators and constitutes a roadmap for a sustainable European information system. It also provides minimum standards for improving national data systems and can be used in other countries to facilitate comparison of perinatal indicators.

Abstract

National audience; La mortalité maternelle est un indicateur de la qualité des soins obstétricaux. La France a mis en place en 1996 un système de surveillance comportant le suivi des taux et des causes et une enquête confidentielle conduisant à leur expertise. Les définitions utilisées sont celles de l'Organisation Mondiale de la Santé. Une première analyse porte sur les données observées à partir des statistiques de l'état civil, en particulier les taux (rapport des décès obstétricaux aux naissances vivantes); la seconde analyse repose sur l'Enquête confidentielle des décès maternels et leur expertise par le Comité national d'experts (pourcentage d'évitabilité). Le taux est estimé entre 9 à 13 décès pour 100 000 naissances vivantes. Après une diminution enregistrée entre 1996 et 2000, l'évolution plus récente est moins favorable. Le taux augmente avec l'âge (risque 8 fois plus élevé à 40 ans qu'à 20-24 ans) et selon la nationalité (taux deux fois plus élevé parmi les femmes non Européennes). La France se situe dans une position moyenne parmi les pays comparables et pourrait mieux faire, à l'image de la Finlande (6 pour 100 000). Quatre-vingt-quatre pour cent des décès ont lieu dans un hôpital public, 10% dans une clinique privée et 6% à domicile. La première cause est due aux hémorragies (21% des décès maternels) principalement du post partum, suivies des complications de l'hypertension (HTA, 12%) puis des embolies amniotiques (7%). La moitié des décès maternels de causes obstétricales directes sont considérés « évitables » (73% des hémorragies, 71% des infections mais seulement 43% des HTA). De nombreuses améliorations sont encore possibles, pour connaître les raisons conduisant à ce drame, et pour y remédier ainsi qu'aux soins non optimaux, puisque des pays Européens comparables au nôtre continuent de faire mieux.

Abstract

International audience; Recent national and state legislation has called attention to stark racial/ethnic disparities in maternal mortality and severe maternal morbidity (SMM), the latter of which is defined as having a life-threatening condition or life-saving procedure during childbirth. Using linked New York City birth and hospitalization data for 2012-14, we examined whether racial and economic spatial polarization is associated with SMM rates, and whether the delivery hospital partially explains the association. Women in ZIP codes with the highest concentration of poor blacks relative to wealthy whites experienced 4.0 cases of SMM per 100 deliveries, compared with 1.7 cases per 100 deliveries among women in the neighborhoods with the lowest concentration (risk difference = 2.4 cases per 100). Thirty-five percent of this difference was attributable to the delivery hospital. Women in highly polarized neighborhoods were most likely to deliver in hospitals located in similarly polarized neighborhoods. Housing policy that targets racial and economic spatial polarization may address a root cause of SMM, while hospital quality improvement may mitigate the impact of such polarization.

Abstract

International audience; Objective: To examine within-hospital racial and ethnic disparities in severe maternal morbidity rates and determine whether they are associated with differences in types of medical insurance.Methods: We conducted a population-based, cross-sectional study using linked 2010-2014 New York City discharge and birth certificate data sets (N=591,455 deliveries) to examine within-hospital black-white, Latina-white, and Medicaid-commercially insured differences in severe maternal morbidity. We used logistic regression to produce risk-adjusted rates of severe maternal morbidity for patients with commercial and Medicaid insurance and for black, Latina, and white patients within each hospital. We compared these within-hospital adjusted rates using paired t-tests and conditional logit models.Results: Severe maternal morbidity was higher among black and Latina women than white women (4.2% and 2.9% vs 1.5%, respectively, P

Abstract

International audience; Objective: To estimate the prevalence of severe maternal morbidity among very preterm births and determine its association with very preterm infant mortality and morbidity.Study design: This study used New York City Vital Statistics birth and death records linked with maternal and newborn discharge abstract data for live births between 2010 and 2014. We included 6901 infants without congenital anomalies born between 240/7 and 326/7 weeks of gestation. Severe maternal morbidity was identified as life-threatening conditions or life-saving procedures. Outcomes were first-year infant mortality, severe neonatal morbidity (bronchopulmonary dysplasia, severe necrotizing enterocolitis, stage 3-5 retinopathy of prematurity, and intraventricular hemorrhage grades 3-4), and a combined outcome of death or morbidity.Results: Twelve percent of very preterm live-born infants had a mother with severe maternal morbidity. Maternal and pregnancy characteristics associated with occurrence of severe maternal morbidity were multiparity, being non-Hispanic black, and preexisting health conditions, but gestational age and the percentage small for gestational age did not differ. Infants whose mothers experienced severe maternal morbidity had higher first-year mortality, 11.2% vs 7.7% without severe maternal morbidity, yielding a relative risk of 1.39 (95% CI: 1.14-1.70) after adjustment for maternal characteristics, preexisting comorbidities, pregnancy complications, and hospital factors. Severe neonatal morbidity was not associated with severe maternal morbidity.Conclusions: Severe maternal morbidity is an independent risk factor for mortality in the first year of life among very preterm infants after consideration of other maternal and pregnancy risk factors.

Abstract

Perinatal mortality is a major population health indicatorconveying important signals about the state of maternitycare and measures of the current and future health ofmothers and newborns. International comparisons are usedto encourage countries to improve their perinatal healthand health systems. However, extensive evidence highlightsmethodological challenges to ensuring valid and robustcomparisons, as a lack of standardised criteria can lead tobias and inappropriate inferences.One major issue is the wide international variation in the criteria for classification and registration of deaths as a stillbirth or neonatal death at the threshold of survival.Standard practice is to minimise this problem by using a gestational age cut-off of 24 or even 28 weeks for mortality rate calculations. However, this strategy excludes a significant number of stillbirths, at least one in five deaths before 24 weeks of gestation and over one in three deaths before 28 weeks.As the gestational age limit for initiation of neonatal care decreases, exclusion of these stillbirths limits the full evaluation ofcare provision and outcomes at early gestational ages. Fur-ther, it underestimates the burden of loss on parents’ men-tal and physical health.

Abstract

In November 2018, the Euro-Peristat collaboration published a new European Perinatal Health Report based on national-level indicators of mothers’ and babies’ health in 2015 in current EU member states and Iceland, Norway, and Switzerland, a total of 31 countries with over five million births.1 Euro-Peristat’s indicator set includes ten core and 20 recommended indicators of fetal and newborn health, maternal health, characteristics of the childbearing population, and healthcare services.2 Indicators are compiled from population-based routine sources, such as civil registration systems, administrative or medical birth registers, audits, and surveys.3 A standardised protocol is used and integrates clinically relevant subgroups, notably gestational age and birthweight. Each country provides aggregate data for all births at ≥22 completed weeks of gestation, or ≥500 g birthweight if gestational age is missing. If this is not possible, other clearly specified national criteria are used. Euro-Peristat relies on the active involvement of national teams to compile, verify, and interpret the indicators.

Abstract

International comparisons of stillbirth allow assessment of variations in clinical practice to reduce mortality. Currently, such comparisons include only stillbirths from 28 or more completed weeks of gestational age, which underestimates the true burden of stillbirth. With increased registration of early stillbirths in high-income countries, we assessed the reliability of including stillbirths before 28 completed weeks in such comparisons.In this population-based study, we used national cohort data from 19 European countries participating in the Euro-Peristat project on livebirths and stillbirths from 22 completed weeks of gestation in 2004, 2010, and 2015. We excluded countries without national data for stillbirths by gestational age in these periods, or where data available were not comparable between 2004 and 2015. We also excluded those countries with fewer than 10 000 births per year because the proportion of stillbirths at 22 weeks to less than 28 weeks of gestation is small. We calculated pooled stillbirth rates using a random-effects model and changes in rates between 2004 and 2015 using risk ratios (RR) by gestational age and country.Stillbirths at 22 weeks to less than 28 weeks of gestation accounted for 32% of all stillbirths in 2015. The pooled stillbirth rate at 24 weeks to less than 28 weeks declined from 0·97 to 0·70 per 1000 births from 2004 to 2015, a reduction of 25% (RR 0·75, 95% CI 0·65-0·85). The pooled stillbirth rate at 22 weeks to less than 24 weeks of gestation in 2015 was 0·53 per 1000 births and did not significantly changed over time (RR 0·97, 95% CI 0·80-1·16) although changes varied widely between countries (RRs 0·62-2·09). Wide variation in the percentage of all births occurring at 22 weeks to less than 24 weeks of gestation suggest international differences in ascertainment.Present definitions used for international comparisons exclude a third of stillbirths. International consistency of reporting stillbirths at 24 weeks to less than 28 weeks suggests these deaths should be included in routinely reported comparisons. This addition would have a major impact, acknowledging the burden of perinatal death to families, and making international assessments more informative for clinical practice and policy. Ascertainment of fetal deaths at 22 weeks to less than 24 weeks should be stabilised so that all stillbirths from 22 completed weeks of gestation onwards can be reliably compared.EU Union under the framework of the Health Programme and the Bridge Health Project.

Abstract

Importance: There are wide disparities in neonatal mortality rates (NMRs, deaths <28 days of life after live birth per 1000 live births) between countries in Europe, indicating potential for improvement. Comparing country-specific patterns of births and deaths with countries with low mortality rates can facilitate the development of effective intervention strategies., Objective: To investigate how these disparities are associated with the distribution of gestational age (GA) and GA-specific mortality rates., Design, Setting, and Participants: This was a cross-sectional study of all live births in 14 participating European countries using routine data compiled by the Euro-Peristat Network. Live births with a GA of 22 weeks or higher from 2015 to 2020 were included. Data were analyzed from May to October 2023., Exposures: GA at birth., Main Outcomes and Measures: The study investigated excess neonatal mortality, defined as a rate difference relative to the pooled rate in the 3 countries with the lowest NMRs (Norway, Sweden, and Finland; hereafter termed the top 3). The Kitagawa method was used to divide this excess into the proportion explained by the GA distribution of births and by GA-specific mortality rates. A sensitivity analysis was conducted among births 24 weeks' GA or greater., Results: There were 35 094 neonatal deaths among 15 123 428 live births for an overall NMR of 2.32 per 1000. The pooled NMR in the top 3 was 1.44 per 1000 (1937 of 1 342 528). Excess neonatal mortality compared with the top 3 ranged from 0.17 per 1000 in the Czech Republic to 1.82 per 1000 in Romania. Excess deaths were predominantly concentrated among births less than 28 weeks' GA (57.6% overall). Full-term births represented 22.7% of the excess deaths in Belgium, 17.8% in France, 40.6% in Romania and 17.3% in the United Kingdom. Heterogeneous patterns were observed when partitioning excess mortality into the proportion associated with the GA distribution vs GA-specific mortality. For example, these proportions were 9.2% and 90.8% in France, 58.4% and 41.6% in the United Kingdom, and 92.9% and 7.1% in Austria, respectively. These associations remained stable after removing births under 24 weeks' GA in most, but not all, countries., Conclusions and Relevance: This cohort study of 14 European countries found wide NMR disparities with varying patterns by GA. This knowledge is important for developing effective strategies to reduce neonatal mortality.

Abstract

Objective: To assess changes in caesarean section (CS) rates in Europe from 2015 to 2019 and utilise the Robson Ten Group Classification System (TGCS) to evaluate the contribution of different obstetric populations to overall CS rates and trends., Design: Observational study utilising routine birth registry data., Setting: A total of 28 European countries., Population: Births at ≥22 weeks of gestation in 2015 and 2019., Methods: Using a federated model, individual-level data from routine sources in each country were formatted to a common data model and transformed into anonymised, aggregated data., Main Outcome Measures: By country: overall CS rate. For TGCS groups (by country): CS rate, relative size, relative and absolute contribution to overall CS rate., Results: Among the 28 European countries, both the CS rates (2015, 16.0%-55.9%; 2019, 16.0%-52.2%) and the trends varied (from -3.7% to +4.7%, with decreased rates in nine countries, maintained rates in seven countries (≤ ± 0.2) and with increasing rates in 12 countries). Using the TGCS (for 17 countries), in most countries labour induction increased (groups 2a and 4a), whereas multiple pregnancies (group 8) decreased. In countries with decreasing overall CS rates, CS tended to decrease across all TGCS groups, whereas in countries with increasing rates, CS tended to increase in most groups. In countries with the greatest increase in CS rates (>1%), the absolute contributions of groups 1 (nulliparous term cephalic singletons, spontaneous labour), 2a and 4a (induction of labour), 2b and 4b (prelabour CS) and 10 (preterm cephalic singletons) to the overall CS rate tended to increase., Conclusions: The TGCS shows varying CS trends and rates among countries of Europe. Comparisons between European countries, particularly those with differing trends, could provide insight into strategies to reduce CS without clinical indication., (© 2023 The Authors.
