Description: Adverse pregnancy outcomes are recorded by the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) for infants with congenital anomalies (birth defects) and other serious neonatal conditions.  Each year in Illinois, IDPH's Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Reporting System (APORS) obtains information on thousands of such births throughout the state.  Information about congenital anomalies and other adverse pregnancy outcomes identified in newborn infants was first collected statewide by APORS in 1989.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (leaves 24-25) and indexes.
