Indicator description

A stillborn child is considered a child born or taken out from mother’s body who exhibits no signs of life (not breathing, not moving, no heartbeat) where pregnancy has lasted more than 22 weeks (approximately 6 lunar months) and weight at childbirth has been 500 gr. or more. Expulsion of a dead fetus carried less than 22 weeks considered a miscarriage (abortion), irrespective of whether natural or artificial. These cases are not registered in population registers, nor shown in the tables on stillborn.
