Tackling Persistent and Large Disparities in Birth Outcomes in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.

The 11-year span of data reported in the IMPreSIv database and the breadth of intervention data included allowed us to report granular information on birth outcomes within Allegheny County over this time period. The database also allowed us to summarize the various factors associated with the range of birth outcomes and describe the participation rates in the medical and community setting interventions. Against this backdrop of pronounced disparities in birth outcomes across a range of factors, we examined the effectiveness of interventions for women with different risk factors (e.g. substance use disorders) in order to develop a tool to facilitate individualized referrals to the interventions that will help the most for a specific risk profile.
