Predictors of stillbirth at Tema General Hospital: a registry–based retrospective study
A combination of socio-demographic, maternal, and foetal variables predicted stillbirth at Tema General Hospital in 2019. Recommendations for improving birth outcomes at the hospital entail persistent community awareness initiatives targeting the impact of pivotal risk factors, timely stratification of pregnancies based on risk assessment, and the establishment of specialized Antenatal Care (ANC) services tailored for high-risk cohorts.
