Description:Since the 1989 data year, information has been available on a wide variety of important maternal and infant health factors affecting birth outcome. These include medical and life-style risk factors of pregnancy and birth, obstetric procedures performed, complications of labor andlor delivery, method of delivery, and abnormal conditions and congenital anomalies of the newborn. This major enhancement of medical and health data available on an annual basis for mothers and babies greatly expands the scope of information on pregnancy outcome in the United States (1,2). This is the third report focusing on these new data. Similar information for 1989 and 1990 has been presented in earlier reports (3,4). Demographic information for 1991 births, as well as 1991 data on topics such as prenatal care, low birthweight, and preterm births, were presented in a recent report (5).
