Funded Activity Summary

Few obstetric complications are as emotionally devastating for women and their care givers as stillbirth. Many of the underlying causes of stillbirth are unknown, and almost 25% of stillbirths are unexplained. By applying advanced analysis methods onto linked population health data, this study aims to investigate the trends of stillbirth. And importantly to determine the risk factors of stillbirth, and of further stillbirths in subsequent pregnancies following a stillbirth.
