Title: Countrywide perinatal surveillance in Czechoslovakia. Author: Stembera Z. Journal: Int J Gynaecol Obstet; 1989 Sep; 30(1):17-22. PubMed ID: 2572466. Abstract: Countrywide perinatal surveillance in four 10-year periods of Maternal Child Health (MCH) care development in Czechoslovakia is described. During this time maternal mortality decreased from 137 to 17/100,000 live births, and perinatal mortality (PMR) from 51 to 12/1000. On the basis of study results, countrywide intervention strategies concerning organization as well as medical measures were gradually drawn up. The greatest decrease in PMR was found through basic perinatal care for all; greatest efficiency followed employment of a risk approach.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
