Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Perinatal mortality

    stillbirth (i.e. intrauterine death from 24+0 weeks gestation) or early neonatal mortality (i.e. death within the first 7 days postnatally)

    from 24+0 weeks gestation (for stillbirth); up to 7 days postnatally (for early neonatal mortality)

  • Preterm birth

    live birth with gestational age \>= 24+0 weeks and \<37+0 weeks

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks and <37+0 weeks

  • Small for gestational age

    live birth at gestational age \>= 24+0 weeks with birth weight below 10th centile

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Stillbirth

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks

  • Early neonatal mortality

    up to 7 days postnatally after live birth at gestational age >= 24+0 weeks

  • Very preterm birth

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks and <32+0 weeks

  • Low birth weight

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks

  • Very low birth weight

    gestational age >= 24+0 weeks

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Full cohort

All singleton births in the Netherlands. Stillbirths are excluded from the denominator for all outcomes other than perinatal mortality, stillbirth and congenital anomalies.

Other: Smoke-free legislation

Interventions

The intervention under study is the ban on smoking in workplaces, and in bars and restaurants implemented in the Netherlands on January 1st, 2004 and July 1st, 2008, respectively.
