1 Infant mortality and mother’s country of birth- what information is currently available? Nicola Dennis- Knowledge Transfer Facilitator, KIT(WM), PHE

2 Infant mortality and ethnicity Topics to be covered The West Midlands has significantly higher infant mortality rates than the rest of England Infant mortality has been shown to be higher in non-UK born mothers than UK born mothers Maternal death rates are also higher in non-UK born mothers Numbers of non-UK born mothers vary across the WM local authorities 2Infant mortality and ethnicity

5 5 England Local authority rate

6 Further breakdowns As well as examining infant mortality as a whole, we can also look at Stillbirths Perinatal mortality rates (under 7 days) Neonatal mortality rates (under 28 days) Post neonatal mortality rates (28 days-1 year) 6Infant mortality and ethnicity

11 Non-UK born mothers: What information is available? There are many potential risk factors for stillbirth, infant mortality and maternal mortality Rates of all of these have been shown to be higher in non-UK born mothers However, because of (overall) small numbers, the information available is currently limited 11Infant mortality and ethnicity

12 Country of birth, 2012 12Infant mortality and ethnicity Rates: Stillbirths and perinatal deaths per 1,000 live births and stillbirths. Neonatal, postneonatal and infant deaths per 1,000 live births.

18 What does this mean? We do not have WM specific rates for mortality and country of birth However, the numbers of UK born and non-UK born mothers across LAs may indicate areas of greater need What else do we know about the higher risks for non-UK mothers? 18Infant mortality and ethnicity

19 Country of birth, 2012 19Infant mortality and ethnicity Rates: Stillbirths and perinatal deaths per 1,000 live births and stillbirths. Neonatal, postneonatal and infant deaths per 1,000 live births.

29 Maternal deaths “Women born outside the UK were significantly more likely to die than those born in the UK (RR 1.77, 95% CI 1.39-2.24). Women born in Nigeria had the highest maternal mortality rate (34.2 per 100,000 maternities, 95% CI 16.4- 62.9). Three of the ten women from Nigeria who died, died from cardiac disease (30%). Most (70%) were long-term migrants (>5 years of residence). Nine of the ten women received antenatal care, but only one of them received the NICE recommended level of care (booking at less than 10 weeks and no antenatal appointments missed).” Saving Lives, Improving Mothers’ Care Lessons learned to inform future maternity care from the UK and Ireland Confidential Enquiries into Maternal Deaths and Morbidity 2009-2012, Page 19 https://www.npeu.ox.ac.uk/downloads/files/mbrrace- uk/reports/Saving%20Lives%20Improving%20Mothers%20Care%20report%202014%20Full.pdf 29Infant mortality and ethnicity
