从2006年到2012年，美国的早期和晚期胎儿死亡率总体持平。在同一时期，三个最大的种族和西班牙裔群体：非西班牙裔白人、非西班牙裔黑人和西班牙裔妇女的胎儿死亡率也基本没有变化。由于早期新生儿死亡率下降，2006年至2011年围产期死亡率下降了4%。非西班牙裔黑人妇女的围产期死亡率下降了8%；在非西班牙裔白人和西班牙裔女性中，死亡率的下降没有统计学意义。值得注意的是，围产期死亡率继续下降。自2000年以来，这一比率下降了10%(4)，最近一段时期（2006-2011年）的下降速度与2000 - 2005年的下降速度一致。然而，美国的胎儿死亡率在2006-2012年期间没有改善。
Total, early, and late fetal mortality rates were generally flat in the United States from 2006 through 2012. Over this same period, fetal mortality rates were also essentially unchanged among each of the three largest race and Hispanic origin groups: non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black, and Hispanic women. The perinatal mortality rate declined 4% from 2006 through 2011, a result of a decrease in early neonatal mortality. The perinatal mortality rate fell 8% for non- Hispanic black women; declines among non-Hispanic white and Hispanic women were not statistically significant. The continued decline in the perinatal mortality rate is noteworthy. The rate is down 10% since 2000 (4), and the pace of decline for the most current period, 2006–2011, is consistent with that for 2000–2005. The U.S. fetal mortality rate, however, did not improve during 2006–2012.
