Yet there is still a large gap between the outcomes in developing and developed countries. This book addresses the steps needed to reduce that gap. It reviews the available statistics of low birth weight, prematurity, and birth defects; reviews current knowledge and practices of a healthy pregnancy, identifies cost-effective opportunities for improving birth outcomes and supporting families with an infant handicapped by birth problems, and recommens priority research, capacity building, and institutional and global efforts to reduce adverse birth outcomes in developing countries. The committee has based its study on data and information from several developing countries, and provides recommendations that can assist the March of Dimes, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and NIH in tailoring their international program and forging new partnerships to reduce the mortality and morbidity associated with adverse birth outcomes.Newborn infantsDeveloping countriesMortalityPreventionNewborn infantsDiseasesDeveloping countriesPreventionFetal deathDeveloping countriesPreventionFetusDiseasesDeveloping countriesPreventionMothersDeveloping countriesMortalityPreventionInfant health servicesDeveloping countriesMaternal health servicesDeveloping countriesPregnancyComplicationsDeveloping countriesPreventionMothersMortalityPregnancy Outcome(DNLM)D011256Pregnancy Complicationsprevention & control(DNLM)D011248Q00517Infant Mortality(DNLM)D007226Maternal Mortality(DNLM)D008428Developing Countries(DNLM)D003906Newborn infantsMortalityPrevention.Newborn infantsDiseasesPrevention.Fetal deathPrevention.FetusDiseasesPrevention.MothersMortalityPrevention.Infant health servicesMaternal health servicesPregnancyComplicationsPrevention.MothersMortality.Pregnancy OutcomePregnancy Complicationsprevention & controlInfant MortalityMaternal MortalityDeveloping Countries362.1/989201/091724Bale Judith R1802510Stoll Barbara J1802511Lucas Adetokunbo O1802512Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Committee on Improving Birth Outcomes.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957109503321Improving birth outcomes4348409UNINA
