New resource published in May 2025

Published: 08 May 2025

We are pleased to announce that the following new resource from HQIP-commissioned audits and programmes has been published, and includes an infographic, data and recommendations to support quality improvement:

UK Perinatal Mortality Surveillance 2023 report, Maternal, Newborn and Infant Clinical Outcome Review Programme (MBRRACE-UK)

This MBRRACE-UK Perinatal Mortality Surveillance report focuses on UK perinatal deaths of babies born in 2023. It finds that extended perinatal mortality rates across the UK continued to decline in 2023 (primarily driven by a reduction in stillbirths), highlighting continued progress in reducing perinatal mortality. However, it also underscores the need for targeted interventions to address disparities by socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and gestational age.
