Neonatal mortality in Colorado in the 3-year period 1977-1979 has been analyzed by means of standardized neonatal mortality ratios derived from birth weight-specific mortality for every obstetric facility. The standardized neonatal mortality ratios adjusted for the percentage of neonatal deaths due to untreatable disorders are presented as one possible method for comparing the neonatal outcome in obstetric populations of dissimilar risk. We have suggested that facilities with adjusted standardized neonatal mortality ratios significantly above 1 are those that might benefit from an in-depth review of perinatal services.
通过每个产科机构按出生体重划分的死亡率得出的标准化新生儿死亡率，对科罗拉多州1977 - 1979年三年间的新生儿死亡率进行了分析。针对因无法治疗的疾病导致的新生儿死亡百分比进行调整后的标准化新生儿死亡率，作为比较不同风险产科人群新生儿结局的一种可能方法被呈现出来。我们已经表明，调整后的标准化新生儿死亡率显著高于1的机构，可能会从围产期服务的深入审查中受益。
