The Jamaican Perinatal Morbidity and Mortality Survey was conducted between September 1986 and August 1987. A total of 10,310 consecutive births were identified and mothers interviewed in the first 2 months (main cohort study), 1405 neonatal admissions were evaluated over a 6-month period (morbidity study), and 1855 perinatal deaths and 73 late neonatal deaths identified over 12 months (mortality study)-55% of the deaths were given a postmortem examination. The perinatal mortality rate for the cohort study was 38.1 per 1000 births. This was 36.6 percent higher than the 1982 estimate of 27.9/1000 based on deliveries at the Victoria Jubilee Hospital, a specialist maternity institution which has at least 13,000 deliveries per annum.
牙买加围产期发病率和死亡率调查于1986年9月至1987年8月进行。共确定了10310例连续分娩病例，并在前两个月对母亲进行了访谈（主要队列研究）；在6个月期间对1405例新生儿入院病例进行了评估（发病率研究）；在12个月内确定了1855例围产期死亡病例和73例晚期新生儿死亡病例（死亡率研究），其中55%的死亡病例进行了尸检。队列研究的围产期死亡率为每1000例分娩38.1例。这比1982年根据维多利亚禧年医院（一家每年至少有13000例分娩的专业产科机构）的分娩情况估计的27.9/1000高出36.6%。
