A survey of Papua New Guinean parturients at the Port Moresby General Hospital: sociodemographic and reproductive characteristics.
A survey of 673 consecutive Papua New Guinea parturients carried out at the Port Moresby General Hospital between May and June 1990 showed that socioeconomic and educational factors played a part in predicting perinatal death. Mothers who have previously experienced a perinatal death are more likely to experience a second one.
