Developing a social vulnerability index for antenatal care screening of risk for adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Social determinants of health influence maternal and perinatal outcomes, yet tools to operationalize these risks in clinical care remain scarce. We aimed to study social determinants in Brazilian pregnant women and develop a social vulnerability index (SVI) that could correlate with pregnancy and perinatal outcomes.
