Do Birthweight‐For‐Gestational Age Centiles Predict Serious Neonatal Morbidity and Neonatal Mortality?

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Studies show that foetal and birthweight‐for‐gestational age centiles are poor predictors of serious neonatal morbidity and neonatal mortality (SNMM) in univariable models. Objective We assessed the predictive performance of multivariable SNMM models based on maternal/pregnancy characteristics, with and without birthweight centiles.
