Infant Mortality in Ohio In 2010 infants less than one month old accounted for 69% of all infant deaths and

46% of all deaths.

Prematurity was the most frequent cause of infant deaths, accounting for 49%.

Congenital anomalies accounted for 13% of all infant deaths.

Where gestational age was known, 70% of the infants were born preterm (before 37 weeks gestation).

Sleep-related deaths (including sudden infant death syndrome or SIDS) accounted for 14% of infant deaths in 2010, more than any single cause of death except prematurity. Forty-six percent of sleep-related deaths were to black infants, which is disproportionate to their representation in the Ohio child population (17%).

Sixty-two percent of the sleep related deaths occurred in locations considered unsafe such as in adult beds and on couches. Fifty-five percent occurred to infants who were sharing a sleeping surface (bedsharing) with someone else at the time of death.

SIDS accounted for 3% of infant deaths. At least 54% of SIDS victims were exposed to smoke in utero.

Preterm Birth Women with a history of a spontaneous pre-term delivery are at increased risk of

pre-term birth in a current pregnancy. Of the approximately 400,000 pre-term births annually in the United States,

about 50,000 occur in women with a previous pre-term delivery.

Known Risk Factors for Preterm Birth

History of preterm birth Unintended pregnancy Previous fetal or neonatal death 3+ spontaneous losses Assisted reproductive technology

(ART) Genetic predisposition Folic acid deficiency

Environmental toxins Low pre-pregnancy weight Obesity Anemia Lack of social support Tobacco use Alcohol abuse Illicit drug use

medication therapy. Train and educate clinical staff in identification and management of high

Molina 17-P Project17 Alpha Hydroxyprogesterone

“Recent studies support the hypothesis that progesterone supplementation reduces preterm birth in a select group of women (i.e, those with a prior spontaneous birth at <37 weeks of gestation).”
