Query Builder for New Jersey Fetal Death Data: Count

Overview

Overview

The data in this NJSHAD query module come from the New Jersey Fetal Death Certificate database. The database is maintained by the New Jersey Department of Health, Office of Vital Statistics and Registration. Fetal deaths occurring after the completion of 20 or more weeks of gestation are required to be reported to the State Registrar by New Jersey law. Induced abortions of 20 weeks or more gestation are encompassed by this requirement, but are not included in the fetal death count. Fetal death figures presented in NJSHAD, therefore, include only spontaneous fetal deaths (also called stillbirths) beyond 19 weeks of gestation. Fetal deaths of unknown or unstated gestational age are also included.

Getting Started

Follow the steps to narrow your query and display your results. When you are done forming your query, click "Submit" at the bottom of the screen to get your query result.
Step 1: Select year of death (2008)

Selecting years

Select a range of years. Use Ctrl to make multiple selections.
Select years.

Step 2: Select mother's age (Predefined age groups: All ages)

Choose a coding scheme to use for age groups. Default is pre-defined age groups, all ages. Mother's age is at time of birth.

Maternal age groups (Under 15, 15-17, 18-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50+)

How to Specify Age Groups

Enter whole numbers from 0 to 99.

Use a hyphen to indicate a range of ages (e.g., "5-8" will include ages 5, 6, 7, and 8).

You may use greater than (>) or less than (<) symbols.

You may use a plus sign (+) to indicate all ages equal to or greater than (e.g.,"35+" yields all those aged 35 and over).

Enter "unknown" to include those with unreported age in total results.
Enter custom age group (Click HELP icon to the right for more information.)











Step 3: Select mother's race and/or ethnicity (Race/ethnicity combined: All races/ethnicities)

Race and Ethnicity

Race and Hispanic ethnicity are collected separately on fetal death certificates.

Therefore each fetal death record has both a race (White, Black, etc.) and an ethnicity (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) for the mother and data for race and ethnicity may be presented separately (Race or Hispanic origin) or combined (Race/Ethnicity).
Choose a coding scheme to use for race and ethnicity. Default is race/ethnicity combined, all races/ethnicities.

Mother's race/ethnicity
All races/ethnicities
White, non-Hispanic
Black, non-Hispanic
Hispanic (of any race)
Asian, non-Hispanic
Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, non-Hispanic
American Indian/Alaska Native, non-Hispanic
Other Single Race, non-Hispanic

Mother's Race

Race groups include both Hispanics and non-Hispanics.
Mother's race
All races
White
Black or African American
Asian
Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander
American Indian/Alaska Native
Other Single Race

Mother's Ethnicity

Ethnicity groups include persons of any race.
Mother's Hispanic origin
Both Hispanic and non-Hispanic

Step 4: Select other maternal characteristics

Select other characteristics of the mother that you would like to include in your analysis. The default is all characteristics.

Nativity (birthplace)
U.S.
Puerto Rico
Remainder of World
Marital status
Both married and unmarried
Married
Not Married
Education

Parity

Parity is the number of previous live-born children a woman has delivered. Select 0 if looking for information about the first child born to a woman.
Parity (previous births)
None
One
Two
Three or More
Tobacco use during pregnancy
Yes
No
Alcohol use during pregnancy
Yes
No
Drug use during pregnancy
Yes
No
Step 5: Select fetal characteristics

Select the fetal characteristics you would like to include in the analysis. The default is all characteristics.

Gender
Both male and female
Male
Female
Plurality (single or multiple gestation)

Delivery Weight

Very Low Delivery Weight: Delivery weight less than 1500 grams (about 3.3 lbs.)

Low Delivery Weight: Delivery weight less than 2500 grams (about 5.5 lbs.)

Normal Delivery Weight: Delivery weight at least 2500 grams but less than 4,000 grams

High Delivery Weight: Delivery weight greater than 4,000 grams (about 8.8 lbs.)
Delivery Weight

Gestational Age

Gestational Age is the period of time a baby is carried in the uterus or the duration of the pregnancy, measured from the first day of the last menstrual period. Full-term gestation is between 37 and 42 weeks.
Gestational age

Size for Gestational Age

Small for gestational age (SGA) is a term used to describe a baby who is smaller than usual for the number of weeks of pregnancy. SGA babies usually have birthweights below the 10th percentile for babies of the same gestational age. This means that they weigh less than 90 percent of all other babies of the same gestational age.

Large for gestational age (LGA) is a term used to describe a baby who is larger than usual for the number of weeks of pregnancy. LGA babies usually have birthweights above the 90th percentile for babies of the same gestational age. This means that they weigh more than 90 percent of all other babies of the same gestational age.
Large or small for gestational age
Small
Appropriate
Large
Step 6: Select health services utilization characteristics

Select the health services utilization characteristics you want to include in your analysis. The default is all characteristics.

Prenatal Care Recommendations

It is recommended that pregnant women begin prenatal care during their first three months (first trimester) of pregnancy.
Prenatal care onset

Number of Prenatal Care Visits

ACOG recommends the following prenatal care visit schedule:

1 visit per month (every 4 weeks) until week 28

2 visits per month (every 2 to 3 weeks) from weeks 28 to 36

1 visit per week from week 36 until birth

Certain medical conditions in pregnancy may necessitate more visits.
Number of prenatal care visits
Adequacy of prenatal care (Kotelchuck method)
All fetal deaths regardless of prenatal care adequacy
Inadequate
Adequate
Method of delivery
Place of delivery

Interpregnancy Interval

The interpregnancy interval is the time (in months) between the completion of one pregnancy resulting in a live-born infant and conception of the next pregnancy.
Interpregnancy interval (pregnancy spacing)
Step 7: Select cause of death (NJDOH 7 Major Causes of Fetal Death: All causes)

Cause of Death

There are a variety of predefined causes of death to choose from. If causes on the predefined lists do not meet your needs, you may enter your own ICD-10 codes by selecting "User-defined causes."
First choose a coding scheme to use for causes of death. Default is all causes.

NJDOH 7 major causes of fetal death

NCHS Leading Causes of Death

The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) has developed a uniform procedure for ranking causes of death. Using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) coding structure, 124 selected causes of fetal death were consolidated from the entire ICD-10 coding structure. Of these 124 causes, a subset of 45 rankable causes were selected to denote the most frequently occurring causes of death among causes eligible for ranking. Use the help page link to the right with a yellow "?" for a listing.
NCHS 45 rankable causes of fetal death

How to Specify ICD-10 Codes

Enter the codes with or without the decimal point. Use a hyphen to indicate a range of codes. Use a space or comma between codes.

Note that, for example, P23 includes all codes under P23 (congenital pneumonia), from P23.0 (Congenital pneumonia due to viral agent) to P23.9 (Congenital pneumonia, unspecified). Because the codes are alpha-numeric and not simply numeric, deaths coded simply P23_ [underscore added to show blank space] will not be included in a range from P23.0-P23.9 since P23_ is less than P23.0. P23-P24 would include all codes under P23 and P24.
User defined causes











Step 8: Select geographic area of residence at death (County of Residence: All counties)

Selecting Geography

Select the geographic areas you want to include.
Select the geographic areas you would like to include in your analysis. The default is all New Jersey residents.
