Detailed explanation-1: -Stillbirth rate is defined as the ratio of the number of stillbirths per 1, 000 live births and stillbirths taken together (i.e. total births). Some progress has been made in preventing stillbirths. Globally, the stillbirth rate declined by 35 percent since 2000.
Detailed explanation-2: -How Many Babies Are Stillborn? Stillbirth affects about 1 in 175 births, and each year about 21, 000 babies are stillborn in the United States.
Detailed explanation-3: -The overall rate of stillbirth from HMIS dataset is found to be about 12.9 per 1000 total births during 2017–2020. Across the years, though the rate didn’t change much but widely varied across the states with lowest SBR in Kerala (3.7) while highest in Chandigarh (22.5) and Meghalaya (22.3) in 2019–20.
