- abstract: This data set supports calculation of the percent ("incidence") of very preterm singleton births, which is the number of live singleton infants born at less than 32 weeks gestation per 100 live singleton births to resident mothers in a given time period. The measure is presented by county for years 1990-2021.
- purpose: Dataset was created to allow public access to annual percentages of very preterm singleton births for examination of time trends and patterns. Very preterm infants are at a greater risk of early death, morbidity and long-term disability than term infants. This measure can be used to track prematurity in New Mexico regions and counties. Baseline data can be used to monitor changes or trends over time. This measure can also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of existing and new prevention programs.
- supplinf: The live birth data are derived from items reported on the birth certificate. New Mexico began systematic record keeping of birth events in 1929. The New Mexico Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics (NM-BVRHS) maintains the data for issuance and for statistical reporting. Data are collected on all births occurring in-state as well as births to NM residents that occur out-of-state. On July 1, 2007, New Mexico began using a new web-based electronic birth registration system (the Database Application for Vital Events). Births occurring prior to July 2007 were recorded in the previous system (referred to as LifeSpan). Geocoding of live birth data began with data collected in 1990.

- accconst: Restricted (secure) data will only be released to external users after the New Mexico EPHT Program distributor and the data steward, the New Mexico Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics (NM-BVRHS), has reviewed and authorized the request. Restricted (secure) data must be requested on the standard NM-BVRHS Request Form and the signed Request Form submitted to NM-BVRHS via FAX at (505) 827-1751, ATTN. Epidemiology Section. To access documentation describing the data elements of the underlying birth data, inquiries may be made to vrhs.data@doh.nm.gov
- useconst: This information is provided by the New Mexico Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics of the Epidemiology and Response Division, New Mexico Department of Health. Efforts have been made to assure the accuracy of the data. Birth records are filed electronically by hospitals. Medical records staff use standard mother and facility worksheets and medical charts to complete the birth registration. Hospital training is provided by NM-BVRHS and is based on the Vital Statistics Act and Regulations, NM-BVRHS documentation, and handbooks produced by CDC's National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). The electronic birth registration system has online edits and records are reviewed by NM-BVRHS. Additionally, NCHS provides feedback to NM-BVRHS on data quality. The state also provides feedback to the hospitals to improve data quality and contacts hospital staff for clarification of missing, inconsistent or incorrect entries. However, no responsibility is assumed by NM-BVRHS related to materials or how it is represented by those who access this information. Data requests that would provide cell counts of 1, 2, or 3 events, which are also based on a denominator of less than 5000, will not be permitted as this would violate minimum requirements for confidentiality and privacy. Further, interjurisdictional exchange agreements between NM-BVRHS and other states prevent the distribution of out-of-state records that specifically identify jurisdictions other than New Mexico. All users must read and fully comprehend metadata prior to data use. Data may only be used for the purposes the Requestor specifies in the standard NM-BVRHS Request Form.

- complete: In January of 2008, NM-BVRHS began electronic birth registration using the new (2003) U.S. Standard Birth Certificate. Substantially new information is collected on the new certificate in addition to most of the fields collected in prior years. In the 2008 and 2009 data collection 25% and 13% of the records respectively had unknown Initiation of Prenatal Care Dates due to changes in how questions were framed. This impacted data completeness in prenatal care calculations derived from this information including: Trimester prenatal care began and the Level of Prenatal Care Indices (Kotelcheck and Kessner).
