description Background: It has been observed that the increase in preterm births was accompanied by a decrease in fetal mortality.Objective: To evaluate the relationship between fetal mortality and prematurity in Argentina.Methods: Ecological design. The population included all live births and fetal demise in Argentina between 2003 and 2013. Outcomes: total fetal mortality rate (TFMR), fetal mortality rate by birth weight, fetal mortality rate, neonatal mortality rate, perinatal mortality rate, trends in fetal mortality rates specific for gestational age (GA), and prematurity (<37+ 0 weeks). Independent variables: age (<19 and > 35 years), education <8 years, with partner, parity 1 and > 4, multiple pregnancy and birth rate. Statistical analysis: linear regression analysis adjusted for covariates.Results: TFMR showed an annual reduction of 0.18 per thousand births that decreased with the increase of GA, being the largest reduction below 28+0 weeks (68%), while prematurity increased 0.07% per year, being the largest increase (0.75%) between 32+0 and 36+6 weeks. Linear regression model showed an inverse relationship between TFMR and prematurity (adjusted R2 0.76, p = 0.010), being the highest between 32+0 and 36+6 weeks (adjusted R2 = 0.98, p < 0.001).Conclusions: The reduction in fetal mortality was associated with the observed increase in preterm births in Argentina.

AntecedentesSe ha observado que el aumento de nacimientos prematuros fue acompañado por una disminución en la mortalidad fetal.ObjetivoEvaluar la relación entre la mortalidad fetal y la prematurez en Argentina.Material y MétodosDiseño ecológico; la población incluyó a todos los nacidos vivos y muertos de Argentina entre 2003 y 2013.Variables Resultado: tasa de mortalidad fetal total (TMFT), tasa de mortalidad fetal por peso, razón de mortalidad fetal, tasa de mortalidad neonatal, tasa de mortalidad perinatal, tendencias de las tasas de mortalidad fetal específicas por edad gestacional (EG), y Prematurez (PP,<37+0 semanas). Variables independientes: edad (<19 y > 35 años), educación <8 años, con pareja, paridad 1 y > 4, embarazo múltiple y tasa de natalidad.Análisis estadístico: análisis de regresión lineal ajustado para covariados.ResultadosLa TMFT mostró una reducción anual del 0,18 por mil y disminución con el aumento de la EG, siendo la mayor reducción en menores a 28+0 semanas (68%), mientras que el parto prematuro aumentó 0,07% por año, siendo el mayor incremento (0,75%) entre la 32+0 y 36+6 semanas. La regresión lineal mostró un R2 ajustado de 0,76 (p = 0,010) y la mayor relación inversa entre la TMFT y el PP se observó en prematuros entre 32+0 a 36+6 semanas (R2 = 0,98, p = <0,001).ConclusionesLa reducción de la mortalidad fetal se asoció con el incremento observado de los nacimientos vivos prematuros en la Argentina.  Universidad Nacional Córdoba.
