Impacts on Causes of Perinatal Death After Safer Baby Bundle Implementation in Victoria, Australia
SBB implementation was associated with a significant reduction in unexplained stillbirths and those due to specific perinatal conditions, without an increase in any cause of neonatal death. These findings support the program's national expansion, with targeted efforts needed to address the remaining causes of stillbirth.
