Description:The National Vital Statistics System is the primary source of information on fetal deaths of 20 weeks of gestation or more in the United States. Data are cooperatively produced by jurisdiction vital statistics offices and the National Center for Health Statistics. In order to promote the uniformity of data, the National Center for Health Statistics issues The Model State Vital Statistics Act and Regulations, and produces standard certificates and reports, developed in collaboration with the states, to inform the development of jurisdictional vital records laws and regulations and data collection. While there are challenges in collecting national fetal death data, there are ongoing data quality improvement efforts to address them. Improved national fetal death data and data from other sources will continue to add insights into the risks, causes and prevention of fetal death.
