Fetal Origins of DiseaseNew York Times, Oct. 2, 2010
• “Perhaps the most striking finding is that a stressful intrauterine environment may be a mechanism that allows poverty to replicate itself generation to generation. Pregnant women in low income areas tend to be more exposed to anxiety, depression, chemicals and toxins, more likely to smoke or drink… the result is children who start life at a disadvantage…”

Fetal Origins of DiseaseAltered Gene Expression
• Jirtle & Waterland, Duke University• Agouti mice
– Normally fat bodies, yellow fur, predisposed to diabetes and cancer
– Appearance and physiology due to a specific gene• Group of pregnant mice
– Half got regular diet, have got diet high in methyl groups (can turn genes off or on)
– Pups from moms on regular diet looked just like their parents– Pups from hi-methyl moms were SLENDER, BROWN FUR, NOT

A Community-Based Initiative to Prevent Preterm Birth
CAN WE DO BETTER WITH WHAT WE KNOW NOW?
• A ‘real world’, ecological design using bundling of evidence-based interventions in different health care settings (academic, private, clinic-based)
• An innovative, multi-dimensional intervention program designed to prevent “preventable” preterm birth in subgroups of the population where interventions have a likelihood of success in a reasonable period of time

Keys to Community-Based Prematurity Prevention
Data Action
We know enough now to do better
• Data determines the focusLate preterm was driving the increase PTB rates
• Develop the Data Consumer & provider surveys, focus groups, ACOG survey, policy and environment surveys
• Data quality mattersData Definitions, consistent collection
• Local Data drives improvementDon’t wait for vital statistics file
Use or adapt existing data sources

The Late Preterm Morbidity:HYPOGLYCEMIA
• Hypoglycemia is 3X more common in late preterm infants
• “Unlike term infants, late preterm infants are incapable of mounting an adequate mature counter-regulatory response to hypoglycemia”– Gluconeogenesis, ketogenic responses to mobilize
alternate fuels is inadequate– Glycogen reserves, adipose stores build up only in
late gestation– Astrocytes in the glia are still immature

Concerns about Late Preterm Brain Development
And Potential Impact “Because one out of 11 births in this country
is a late preterm birth, and since the brain of the late preterm infant is
less mature than that of the term infant, even a minor increase in the rate of
neurologic disability and scholastic failure in this group can have a huge impact on the health care and educational systems.”
Raju TNK. Epidemiology of Late Preterm Births. Clin Perinatol 33 (2006) 751-763
Mortality in the Late Preterm • Late preterm infants were 3 times more likely than term
infants to die in the first year of life• Even excluding congenital anomalies, infant mortality rates
for late preterm infants were 2.6 times higher than in term infants
• Early Neonatal (<7 days) 6X more likely to die• Late Neonatal 3 X more likely• Post Neonatal: 2X more likely
• Late preterm infants are 8.5 times more likely to die with a diagnosis of respiratory distress in the early neonatal period
• Late preterm infants are twice as likely as term infants to die of SIDS
Tomashek, KM, Shapiro-Mendose CK, Davidoff MJ, Petrini JR. Differences in Mortality between Late-Preterm and Term Singleton Infants in the United States, 1995-2002. J Pediatr 2007:151:450-6
Late Preterm Infant Morbidity in the Neonatal Period
• Late Preterms were 7X more likely to have newborn morbidity than term infants. Newborn morbidity rate doubled for each gestational week earlier than 38 weeks
• The independent effect of late preterm birth on morbidity was 7X stronger than any of the selected maternal conditions
• The proportion of morbidity among late preterm infants was relatively high across the board, ranging from 18.1% to 27.8%
Shapiro-Mendosa CK et al. Pediatrics 2008, 121:e223-e232
LATE PRETERM OUTCOMES
Compared to term infants, infants born in the late preterm period have:
• 6X incr risk of dying in the first week of life• 3X incr risk of dying in the first year of life• Increased risk of ADHD by 70%• Clinically significant behavior problems in 20%• Incr risk for special ed, cognitive and learning problems • 2-4X increased risk for Cerebral Palsy• 2-3X increased risk for IQ < 85• Increased risk for mental disorders/schizophrenia as adults• 40% increased risk for medical disability that limits working capacity as
adults• Increased risk of long term neurodevelopmental handicap as young
adults
ACOG Committee Opinion # 22
• ACOG has cautioned against inductions before 39 weeks in the absence of a medical indication
• Since 1979
ACOG Committee Opinion # 404Late Preterm Infants, April 2008
• Late preterm infants often are mistakenly believed to be as physiologically and metabolically mature as term infants. However, compared with term infants, late–preterm infants are at higher risk than term infants of developing medical complications, resulting in higher rates of infant mortality, higher rates of morbidity before initial hospital discharge, and higher rates of hospital readmission in the first months of life.
Preterm delivery should occur only when an accepted maternal or fetal indication for delivery exists.
Statement developed jointly with AAP Committee on Fetus & Newborn
Reinforced no elective induction or C/S should be done prior to 39 weeks gestation
Specific criteria for establishing gestational age should be followed
A mature fetal lung test result before 39 weeks of gestation, in the absence of appropriate clinical circumstances, is not an indication for delivery. (see Bates, 2009)
ACOG Practice Bulletin, Number 107 August 2009
Induction of labor
Elective cesarean delivery before 39 weeks is common (35.8%) and is associated with respiratory and other adverse neonatal outcomes, increased risk 2-4X: At 38 wks OR 1.2-2.1At 37 wks OR 1.8-4.2

Silos Systems
“Comprehensive, coordinated, integration of clinical and public
health systems of care”
• Convene the Partners– Hospitals and Health depts as community health leaders– Don’t really know what services the other provides
• Describe best practices– Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good
• Determine the gaps– Prenatal classes, oral health, MNT, Substance abuse
• What can we do better now?– Fax referral form, exchanging staff, co-locating services, consistent
information; referrals to health dept services
Silos Systems
Healthy Babies are Worth the Wait
Oral Health• ISW - Dental hygenist regular presenter in Centering
• Dental Chair in Women’s Center at hospital– When moved to Health Dept a block away, patients did not
go • ISC - Improved coordination with dental school
clinics • increased emphasis with residents and nurses on oral
screening and care for patients• ISE - No dentists in area would treat pregnant
women• Hosted regional meeting with area dentists and OB’s,
nationally known dentist as speaker• Several local dentists then agreed to see pregnant
women referred by their obstetrician
Healthy Babies are Worth the Wait
Substance abuse prevention and management.• ISW - Improved local access to substance-abuse
treatment for pregnant women
– began universal screening for substance abuse as part of prenatal care; non-stigmatizing, non-punative
• ISC - Improved coordination with in-house detox unit for managing substance abuse in pregnancy
– Implemented universal psychosocial screening• ISE - Grand rounds on use of subutex by addiction
specialist for substance abuse in pregnancy– Hospital social worker went to OB offices to see
and do brief intervention with substance-abusing patients

The basis for psychosocial screening
ACOG Committee Opinion # 343Psychosocial Risk Factors: Perinatal Screening and Intervention• “Biomedical risks, such as complications of pregnancy,
concomitant maternal disease, infection, nutritional deficiencies, and exposure to teratogens, are estimated to account for approximately one half of the incidence of low-birth-weight infants and of prematurity and their postnatal sequellae. An important portion of the remaining cases of these adverse pregnancy outcomes may be attributable to psychosocial stress even after controlling for the effects of recognized socio-demographic, obstetric, and behavioral risk factors.”

Ecological Influences on Health
COMMUNITY MESSAGES• Full Term is about 40 weeks
• Unless there are medical complications, women should try to carry pregnancy to a full 40 weeks, because….
• Much of the brain development happens in those last 4-6 weeks of pregnancy
• Preventing prematurity improves the lives of families and communities

Intervention Implemented Across All Sites
• The impact of the project, measured from 2007 through 2010, did meet the target of reducing preterm birth in the intervention sites by 15%.
Preterm Birth Rates Late Preterm Birth Rates
HBWW: Moving Forward• In 2010 the 3 Kentucky control sites began
implementing HBWW– Data has shown a decrease in preterm and late
preterm birth rates in these sites since intervention implementation
• An additional 2 sites have been added to the Kentucky program in 2011
• March of Dimes is expanding program sites in New Jersey and Texas, with a goal of reaching 20 sites by 2014
