Notes:
DATE TIME OF BIRTH (BABY) is the same as data element DATE AND TIME, from the End Date and End Time of the Fetus Episode.
The DATE corresponds to:
| a | the PERSON BIRTH DATE of the baby, where a REGISTRABLE BIRTH was recorded | |
| or | ||
| b | the recorded End Date of the Fetus Episode, where the PATIENT miscarried a Fetus during the associated Maternity Episode i.e. where the pregnancy ends in or before the 24th week of gestation (which excludes it being recorded as a REGISTRABLE BIRTH). |
Note that for the National Neonatal Data Set - Episodic and Daily Care the baby is always a REGISTRABLE BIRTH so b) above does not apply.
This data element is also known by these names:
