Nutrition 526 - 2012
Framing Maternal & Infant Nutrition
Healthy People 2020 Maternal, Infant and Child Health
• Why do we care about maternal and infant nutritional health?
• What are the determinants of maternal and infant health?
• What are some key indicators of maternal and infant nutritional health: preconceptionally,in the fetus & infant, during pregnancy?
A Life Course Framework: T2 – E2
• Timeline: today’s exposures influence tomorrow’s health
• Timing: health trajectories are particularly affected during critical periods
• Environment: the broader community environment strongly affects the capacity to be healthy
• Equity: inequality in health reflects more than genetics and personal choice
A Public Health Approach to Maternal and Infant Health
• Assessment
• Policy Development
• Assurance: Surveillance and monitoring progress towards goals
Assessment
• Pregnancy population characteristics
• Maternal health indicators
• Infant health indicators
In 2008 births and birth rate were ~ 2% less than 2007; in 2009 they were ~ 3% less than 2008. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/nvsr.htm

Population Indicators & Trends for Maternal Health
• Pre-conceptual indicators
• Weight gain
• Diabetes in pregnancy
• Pre-eclampsia
• Cesarean delivery
• Maternal death
Weight Gain During Pregnancy: Reexamining the Guidelines, IOM. 2009
Per birth certificate – includes all diabetes in pregnancy
African American and White Women Who Died of Pregnancy Complications,* United States
* Annual number of deaths during pregnancy or within 42 days after delivery, per 100,000 live births. † The apparent increase in the number of maternal deaths between 1998 and 1999 is the result of changes in how maternal deaths are classified and coded. Source: CDC, National Center for Health Statistics.
Population Indicators of Infant Health
• Infant mortality
• Birthweight
• Gestational age
Infant Mortality
• Infant mortality rate – Deaths of infants aged under 1 year per 1,000 or 100,000 live births. The infant mortality rate is the sum of the neonatal and postneonatal mortality rates.
• Neonatal mortality rate – Deaths of infants aged 0-27 days per 1,000 live births. The neonatal mortality rate is the sum of the early neonatal and late neonatal mortality rates
• Postneonatal mortality rate – Deaths to infants aged 28 days-1 year per 1,000 live births.

• “In summary, the rates of low birth weight and infant deaths from all causes were lower in those countries with more voter turnout, more left votes, more left members of parliament, more years of social democratic government, more women in government, a stronger social pact and various aspects of the welfare state, and low income inequality, as measured in a variety of ways.”
Birthweight & Gestational Age
Birthweight Definitions• LBW = low birthweight (less than 2,500
grams)• VLBW = Very low birthweight (less than
1,500 g• ELBW = Extremely low birthweight (less
than 1,000 g)• LGA = Large for gestational age
(macrosomia); > 90th %; 4,000 (ICD9) or 4,500 g
Defining Small for Gestational Age (SGA) and Large for Gestational Age (LGA)

Individual - Pregnancy• Physiology and Psychology of Pregnancy• Maternal Preconceptional status
– Inter-generational programming
• Diet in pregnancy: energy/weight gain, macro & micronutrients
• Behaviors that impact nutritional status– Substances: alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, drugs– Physical activity– Oral health– Pregnancy intendedness

disorders of pregnancy
