  1. Perinatal deaths include deaths reported to the Perinatal Data Collection only. As the Perinatal Data Collection form is completed at discharge or transfer of the baby, deaths occurring after this time may not be reported to the Perinatal Data Collection.
  2. Cells with counts less than 5 are suppressed, and other cells may also be hidden to prevent back-calculation. These cells are marked with n.p.
