Perinatal mortality is an epidemiologic indicator that evaluates materno-infantil quality care indirectly. Obtaining rates of perinatal mortality from continuous and confident information systems allow us a more precise evaluation of quality care in developed countries. In developing countries as Mexico, there aren't yet evaluating health programs that let us to know the actual situation of our medical care. Being the main mistake subregister problems in regional and national perinatal mortality case. All this let us to a not optimum use of the limited resources given for health. The aim of this paper is to propose an analysis way into this matter for knowing our institutional and national situation. This would permit us to suggest effective strategies in the prevention of obstetric complications as in the preterm birth case. The main objective is to prevent death in the perinatal period.

Preinduction cervical ripening in previous caesarean pregnancy is limited to intracervical Foley catheter. This study is aimed at finding the vaginal birth rates, improvement of Bishop score, and safety of osmotic dilator (Dilapan-S) among women with previous caesarean pregnancy. We conducted this single-group clinical study after the approval of the institute ethics committee, clinical trial registration, and obtaining informed consent.

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy disorder with substantial perinatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. Pregnant women at risk of preeclampsia would benefit from early detection for follow-up, timely interventions and delivery. Several attempts have been made to identify protein biomarkers of preeclampsia, but findings vary with demographics, clinical characteristics, and time of sampling.

Objective: Babies born between 27 and 31 weeks of gestation contribute substantially towards infant mortality and morbidity. In England, their care is delivered in maternity services colocated with highly specialised neonatal intensive care units (NICU) or less specialised local neonatal units (LNU). We investigated whether birth setting offered survival and/or morbidity advantages to inform National Health Service delivery.

Objectives: Stillbirths, the tragic loss of a baby before or during delivery, presents a profound global health concern. Investigating the diverse causes and risk factors is essential to develop targeted interventions, enhance perinatal care, and reduce the incidence of this devastating outcome. The aim of this study was to identify the causes and possible risk factors of stillbirths in India.
