Rising Incidences of pre-term births
Preterm births are an important reason for public health concern and have been a major driving force for the Neonatal Intensive Care Market. According to the WHO, preterm birth is birth before 37 weeks of gestation and around 13.4 million babies were born preterm in 2020. The increasing prevalence of preterm births is attributed to various factors, including maternal health, lifestyle choices, and socio-economic conditions, all of which necessitate enhanced neonatal care services.
The main cause of the rise of preterm birth is due to high-risk pregnancies. Other risk factors include advanced maternal age; most women in this group often experience increased medical complications, which raise their incidence rate of preterm delivery. These women are usually aged 35 years and above, hence prone to health problems like hypertension or diabetes that raise the possibility of a preterm baby. A second risk factor is multiple pregnancies, which, with more people using assisted reproductive technologies, they are increasingly common and greatly increase the risk for premature delivery.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report indicates that since the year 1980, the number of multiple births has increased by more than 75 percent, partly contributing to the rising numbers of preterm delivery. Among lifestyle factors, apart from maternal age and multiple pregnancies, poor nutrition during pregnancy, smoking, substance abuse, and inadequate prenatal care have been identified as major risk factors for preterm births. Compared to non-smokers, research finds out that the smoking of a woman during pregnancy predisposes her to risk 40% for a premature delivery. Also, socio-economic condition including stress and lack of access to health education have been associated with higher risks of preterm delivery.
