A risk stratification tool for the prevention of avoidable perinatal mortality and morbidity

死产在澳大利亚比一些高收入国家更常见。早产儿可能会出现肺部或其他问题。目前许多死胎和早产是可以预防的。该项目将使用来自西澳、新南威尔士、南澳和新台币（450万新元）的450万新生儿队列，制定一项预测死产、早产和低出生体重风险的战略。更好地查明怀孕风险将改善产前护理，以减少死产和新生儿发病率。

Stillbirth is more common in Australia than in some high-income countries. Babies born early may experience lung or other problems. Many current stillbirths and preterm birth can be prevented. Using a cohort of >4.5 million births from WA, NSW, SA and NT (N >4.5 million), this project will develop a strategy to predict the risk of stillbirth, preterm birth, and low birth weight. Better identification of risk in pregnancy will improve antenatal care to reduce stillbirth and neonatal morbidity.
