Association Between Neighborhood Social Determinants of Health and Stillbirth
Neighborhood deprivation, quantified by ADI score, was a robust independent predictor of stillbirth, whereas the associations between the MVI or SVI and stillbirth were modest. Integrating the ADI into obstetric risk assessment and directing resources, especially perinatal mental health services, to highly deprived areas may help reduce persistent stillbirth disparities.
