MBRRACE-UK Comparison of the care of Asian and White women who have experienced a stillbirth or neonatal death
The Maternal, Newborn and Infant Clinical Outcome Review Programme has published an MBRRACE-UK Perinatal confidential enquiry report on a comparison of the care of Asian and White women who have experienced a stillbirth or neonatal death. It is based on deaths reviewed in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, for the period between 1 July 2019 and December 2019.
The overall findings of this enquiry were based on the consensus opinion of panel members concerning the quality of care provided for 34 Asian and 35 White mothers and their babies. This enquiry was developed to try and identify any differences in the quality of care provided to women of Asian ethnicity compared with their White counterparts, and forms the main focus of this report. As such, the recommendations are targeted at trying to ensure equity for the quality of care provision for both Asian and White mothers and their babies.
Version 2 of the report replaces the version published on 14/12/2023. Section 5.3 has been revised in order to clarify current recommendations on vitamin D.
