Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Nursing Science & Technology
The rising rates of preterm birth (PTB) (less than 37 completed weeks gestation) in the United States is an urgent population/public health issue. Education of the healthcare workforce, policy makers and the public on risk factors for prematurity, and identification of strategies to counter the rising rate of PTB is critical. This policy brief illustrates the problem and sets forth policy recommendations to reduce prematurity rates.
