Last updated: 11/21/2018 PPOR Notes: Minimum 60 fetal-infant deaths. Reference group: White NH mothers ages 20-34 with 13+ years of education in Maryland. BALTIMORE COUNTY 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________ MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH PROFILE Background The Office of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Epidemiology in the MCH Bureau (MCHB) at the Maryland Department of Health created these health profiles to examine local maternal and infant health outcomes and risk factors compared to state averages. Local health departments should use these data and maps to identify and target population specific interventions to reduce maternal health risks that contribute to increased fetal-infant mortality rates among minorities in Maryland. While the statewide infant mortality rate (IMR) has decreased 32% since 1990, racial IMR disparities persist. Infant mortality rates among Black non-Hispanic (NH) births are consistently more than double the rates among White NH births. To eliminate this disparity, the IMR among Black NH births would have to decreased by approximately 60%. The leading cause of infant deaths in Maryland are preterm birth/low birth weight and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) for both Black NH and White NH infants. Congenital anomalies were the leading cause of death for Hispanic infants. Perinatal periods of risk (PPOR) analysis is a method of examining all fetal and infant death data to identify opportunities to reduce perinatal mortality (Sappenfield, 2010). Results from Phase 1 PPOR analysis suggests that half (49%) of excess, or preventable, fetal-infant mortality rates in Maryland during 2010-2017 was due to factors related to the maternal health and prematurity (MHP) period among Black NH births. Phase 2 analyses revealed that the largest reductions in infant mortality and adverse pregnancy outcomes could be produced by improving the social and economic environment of women which predisposes them to poorer health and birth outcomes. Specifically, factors contributing most to racial disparities in adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO: fetal or neonatal death, or very PTB and very LBW births) include differences in marital status, education, insurance coverage, community socioeconomic disadvantage, hypertension, prior preterm birth or other pregnancy outcomes, pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), and participation in the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program. Lack of prenatal care and tobacco use are also associated with increased risks of APO, however, these factors do not appear to explain the differences in APO rates between Black NH and White NH births in Maryland. Findings suggest that eliminating the prevalence of hypertension could reduce APO’s by nearly 12% statewide. Drastic racial differences in marital status highlight the greater need for social support and/or services for minority women to improve pregnancy outcomes (Salihu, 2014). For greater detail about preconception and prenatal risk factors, please visit the Maryland PRAMS website (PRAMS). Programs should use these findings to develop evidence-based initiatives to improve the preconception and maternal health of women, and particularly Black NH women, to produce the greatest reductions in fetal and infant mortality in Maryland.

____________________________________________________________________________________MATERNAL AND INFANT HEALTH PROFILE

BackgroundThe Office of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Epidemiology in the MCH Bureau(MCHB) at the Maryland Department of Health created these health profiles to examinelocal maternal and infant health outcomes and risk factors compared to state averages.

While the statewide infant mortality rate (IMR) has decreased 32% since 1990, racial IMRdisparities persist. Infant mortality rates among Black non-Hispanic (NH) births areconsistently more than double the rates among White NH births.

BALTIMORE COUNTYFetal-Infant Mortality RatesFetal-infant mortality rates (FIMR) represent the number of fetal (older than 20 weeks gestation) or infant deaths(younger than 365 days old) per 1,000 pregnancies in that year. NOTE: Source is linked infant birth and deathcertificate records which exclude records not linked due to certificate errors or migration and results in lowerFIMRs than those in Maryland VSA reports.

Of the 9,907 pregnancies in Baltimore County in 2017 there were 14 fetal or infant deaths for every 1,000pregnancies.

BALTIMORE COUNTYLow Birth Weight (LBW, <2500 grams)Low birth weight describes infants weighing less than 2500 grams, or 5.5 pounds, at birth and is a leading causeof neonatal mortality. Since low birth weight is typically associated with a preterm birth, many public healthinterventions focus on ways to reduce the rates of low birth weight, very low birth weight, and preterm birth asstrategies to reduce infant mortality.

Of the 9,829 live births in Baltimore County in 2017, 9.5% were low birth weight (<2500 grams).

BALTIMORE COUNTYRisk Factor: Unmarried, No Father ListedBirths to unmarried women with no father listed on the birth certificate have an increased risk of adverse birthoutcomes. (Ngui, 2009; Luo, 2004; Alio, 2010). Mothers with a lack of paternal involvement are more likely toexperience greater psychosocial stress due to insufficient economic and social support which can lead to poorhealth behaviors and adverse birth outcomes.

Of the 9,829 live births in Baltimore County in 2017, 32.3% were to unmarried women with no father listedon the birth certif icate.

BALTIMORE COUNTYRisk Factor: Maternal Opioid Use Disorder (OUD)Opioids include heroin, morphine, codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, etc. Maternal opioid use disorder has beenassociated with preterm labor, stillbirth, birth defects, neonatal abstinence syndrome, and maternal mortality(Patrick, 2015; Maeda, 2014). Nationally, the rate of opioid use disorder during delivery hospitalizationsincreased 67% from 2010-2014 (Haight, 2017).

Of the 10,146 maternal hospitalizations in Baltimore County in 2017, there were 20 with an OUD diagnosisfor every 1,000 maternal hospitalizations.

BALTIMORE COUNTYRisk Factor: Maternal Substance Use Disorder (SUD)In addition to opioid, other substances can lead to adverse birth outcomes. Cocaine use during pregnancy canlead to spontaneous abortion, preterm births, placental abruption, and congenital anomalies. Alcohol use duringpregnancy can lead to spontaneous abortion, growth restriction, birth defects, and mental retardation (Keegan,2010). This indicator represents a SUD diagnosis during a maternal hospitalization for the following substances:Opioids, Cocaine, Cannabis, Alcohol, Sedatives, and Hallucinogens.

Of the 10,146 maternal hospitalizations in Baltimore County in 2017, there were 40.9 with an SUDdiagnosis for every 1,000 maternal hospitalizations.
