We have previously analysed neonatal characteristics and duration of pregnancy in Germany based on data from the German Perinatal Survey of 1995-1997. Here we describe neonatal characteristics and duration of pregnancy based on the German Perinatal Survey of 2007-2011.
We had been provided with data from the German Perinatal Survey of 1995-1997 by the chambers of physicians of all the states of Germany except Baden-Württemberg (1 815 318 singleton neonates). We were also provided with access to the perinatal survey data of 2007-2011 by the AQUA Institute in Göttingen, Germany (3 187 920 singleton neonates). We investigated regional differences within Germany and also compared the 2 periods of time. We used the computer programme SPSS for data analysis and performed plausibility checks on the survey data.
Comparing the states of Germany, we found that birth weight was largest for neonates born in Schleswig-Holstein (3 407 g) and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (3 392 g); the lowest mean birth weight was observed in the Saarland (3 283 g). Preterm birth rate varied between 6.3% (Saxony) and 8.1% (Bremen, Saarland). Comparing 1995-1997 vs. 2007-2011, deliveries after 37 and 38 weeks of gestation were more common and deliveries after 39 and more weeks of gestation were less common in the later period of time.
Regional differences in the anthropometric characteristics of neonates exist between the states of Germany. The proportion of deliveries after 39 and more weeks of gestation has decreased.
我们之前基于1995 - 1997年德国围产期调查的数据，分析了德国新生儿的特征及孕期时长。在此，我们依据2007 - 2011年德国围产期调查来描述新生儿特征及孕期时长。
除巴登 - 符腾堡州外，德国各州医师协会向我们提供了1995 - 1997年德国围产期调查的数据（1815318名单胎新生儿）。德国哥廷根的AQUA研究所也让我们获取了2007 - 2011年围产期调查数据（3187920名单胎新生儿）。我们研究了德国境内的地区差异，并对这两个时间段进行了比较。我们使用计算机程序SPSS进行数据分析，并对调查数据进行合理性检查。
比较德国各州，我们发现石勒苏益格 - 荷尔斯泰因州（3407克）和梅克伦堡 - 前波美拉尼亚州（3392克）出生的新生儿出生体重最大；萨尔州的平均出生体重最低（3283克）。早产率在6.3%（萨克森州）至8.1%（不来梅州、萨尔州）之间变化。比较1995 - 1997年与2007 - 2011年，妊娠37周和38周后的分娩更为常见，而在后期妊娠39周及以上的分娩则较少见。
德国各州新生儿人体测量特征存在地区差异。妊娠39周及以上分娩的比例有所下降。
