# RISK OF ADVERSE OUTCOME FOR PREGNANT WOMEN

> **NIH NIH K08** · BRIGHAM AND WOMEN'S HOSPITAL · 1994 · $81,540

## Abstract

The research component will focus on the examination of the relationship
between sociodemographic, medical and behavioral risk factors, the
process of prenatal care and maternal and infant health outcomes for
disadvantaged women.  A more thorough understanding of the relationships
between these factors is crucial to the planning of any interventions
directed towards improving health outcomes.  In addition, this research
program will examine markers of maternal health status beyond the
traditional indicator of mortality.  By focusing on more common,
intermediate outcomes of adverse health status, we believe that we will
provide valuable information about health conditions that cause
significant disability among pregnant women, and are more amenable to
intervention.  this focus on maternal health status is consistent with
the NIH's women's health initiative.  For the training component of the
Award, Dr. Haas will develop "content" expertise in the area of prenatal
care and maternal health assessment, and methodologic expertise in risk
stratification and the assessment of confounding.
