Therapies and Procedures

1. Cesarean Section (Caesarean Section)
2. Induced Labor
3. Prenatal Care (Care, Prenatal)
01/31/2019 - "The quality of information about fetal deaths, investments in research committees, and improvement in the quality of prenatal care should be prioritized to enable more effective coping and to reduce the fetal mortality rate in Brazil."
11/01/2006 - "Of the risk factors associated with fetal death, the main one is a deficient prenatal care, that of being improved, might diminish the association of some other variables that were associated with fetal death."
03/01/2006 - "The study also found that less-educated women, mothers who did not attend for prenatal care and women with a history of abortions and fetal death were at an increased risk of fetal death. "
01/01/2006 - "Beginning in 1964 and every eight years thereafter through 1988, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) conducted intensive national follow-back studies of live births and infant/fetal deaths, which has provided much of our more recent national epidemiologic information about pregnancy and births, especially concerning smoking, prenatal care usage, etc. A similar Department of Education/NCHS national follow-back and longitudinal follow-up study, the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study-Birth Cohort (ECLS-BC) was begun in 2001 and will survey 10,000 mothers and their infants through kindergarten age."
01/01/1992 - "This study identified a high-risk population of patients who did not qualify for medical assistance coverage and were de facto "uninsured." The results suggest that prenatal care for this high-risk population of uninsured patients can reduce the fetal death rate."
