There were no fetal deaths in the inpatient group and there were three fetal deaths in the outpatient group.

The population of the study comprised all fetal deaths taking place in the year 2014, of people resident in the town.

The FDA has cited five fetal deaths in women who became pregnant after using Essure, two metal coils inserted into the fallopian tubes.

Risk "shift" may be a concern in that the reduction in neonatal deaths may be due to an increase in fetal deaths (stillbirths).

Around 20 % of fetal deaths were related to congenital disorders with approximately 5 % of those being NTDs.

Cases included live births, stillbirths, and fetal deaths at less than 20 weeks' gestation born in Alberta, Canada, between 1995 and 2002.

The completeness of the report forms of 68 fetal deaths, and 13 variables in the death certificates, before and after the investigation, was analyzed.

Methods: We used The Paris Registry of Congenital Malformation data on 594 cases of Down syndrome (live births, fetal deaths, and pregnancy terminations) from 2001-2006.
