Definition:
QLD Perinatal Data Collection: This relates to the last birth and therefore not necessarily the last pregnancy. For example, if the mother has had two previous pregnancies and the last pregnancy resulted in a spontaneous abortion while the pregnancy before was a caesarean birth then LSCS should be ticked. Method of delivery should only be provided for abortion/miscarriage when the gestation is 20 weeks or greater and or birth weight 400 grams or more. If the last birth was a multiple birth with two or more different outcomes then more than one mode of birth can be selected. Vaginal non-instrumental and vaginal and other (specify). SA: No definition specified.
