The number of registrable still births by the mother i.e. a birth after a gestation of 24 weeks (168 days), or more, where a baby shows no identifiable signs of life at delivery. This is part of the data recorded about the fetal outcome of previous pregnancies and forms part of the maternity clinical option.

Note: Up to, and including, 30/9/92 the criteria was 28 weeks and not 24 weeks as above.
