    Abstract:
    The purpose of this article is to present the results of the perinatal audit in Viborg County during the years 1994-1996. The perinatal deaths in Viborg County were classified according to commonly used classifications in perinatal audit evaluations, and mortality rates were calculated according to international definitions and compared with data from the Danish National Birth Register, 1995. During 1994-1996 the perinatal mortality rate decreased from 9.4/1000 deliveries to 6.5/1000 deliveries and the neonatal mortality rate decreased from 3.2/1000 deliveries to 2.4/1000 deliveries. The reductions were not statistically significant. No significant difference in mortality rates between Viborg County and overall national mortality rates in 1995 was shown.
