Examination of a Stillbirth Workup: A Rural Statewide Experience

CONCLUSIONS: Fetal stillbirth assessment is suboptimal in our rural state, with 15% of stillbirths having no assessment and only 2% having all four assessments. There is no association between stillbirth assessment and gestational age (<28 weeks vs >28 weeks), but there is a correlation between delivery volume and stillbirth assessment.PMID:36318947 | PMC:PMC9634678 | DOI:10.14423/SMJ.0000000000001471
