Sleep practices and association between supine sleep position and stillbirth in a rural sample of pregnant women in Bangladesh

The study did not identify an association between supine sleep position and stillbirth, which may be due to both the low prevalence of stillbirth as an outcome of research, and the low frequency of supine sleep position. This is the largest study within a low-and-middle income country to assess sleep practices and sleep environment in pregnancy.

Abstract

The study did not identify an association between supine sleep position and stillbirth, which may be due to both the low prevalence of stillbirth as an outcome of research, and the low frequency of supine sleep position. This is the largest study within a low-and-middle income country to assess sleep practices and sleep environment in pregnancy.
