A stillbirth is defined as a fetal loss 20 or more weeks of gestation or a fetal weight of 500 grams or more, which did not breathe or show signs of life at birth. Data on this page are from the Discharge Abstract Database and exclude all non-hospital births.
The crude stillbirth rate is the number of stillbirths per 1000 total births (live births and stillbirths combined). For 2018 in Simcoe Muskoka, the crude stillbirth rate was 6.4 (4.4, 8.9) stillbirths per 1000 births.
