Perinatal health monitoring through a European lens: eight lessons from the Euro-Peristat report on 2015 births
Original language description
In November 2018, the Euro-Peristat collaboration published a new European Perinatal Health Report based on national-level indicators of mothers' and babies' health in 2015 in current EU member states and Iceland, Norway, and Switzerland, a total of 31 countries with over five million births.1 Euro-Peristat's indicator set includes ten core and 20 recommended indicators of fetal and newborn health, maternal health, characteristics of the childbearing population, and healthcare services.2 Indicators are compiled from population-based routine sources, such as civil registration systems, administrative or medical birth registers, audits, and surveys.3 A standardised protocol is used and integrates clinically relevant subgroups, notably gestational age and birthweight. Each country provides aggregate data for all births at GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO22 completed weeks of gestation, or GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO500 g birthweight if gestational age is missing. If this is not possible, other clearly specified national criteria are used. Euro-Peristat relies on the active involvement of national teams to compile, verify, and interpret the indicators. Previous reports were produced for births in 2000, 2004, and 2010.2, 4 The 2015 report focuses on the core indicators and two recommended indicators relevant to public health, smoking in pregnancy and prepregnancy body mass index (BMI). In this commentary, over 50 graphs and tables in the 180-page report are distilled into a single table summarising the distribution of the principal Euro-Peristat indicators and risk ratios from meta-analyses comparing 2015 with 2010. These are used to support eight key messages for healthcare professionals, clinicians, policy-makers, and parents.
