[Perinatal mortality. Statistics from the Gynecological and Obstetrical Service of the Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours...

The authors present their statistics for perinatal mortality from 1961 to 1975. In the last 5 years this mortality is less than 15 per 1000, in spite of an increase in the numbers of pathological pregnancies. Over and above progress in obstetrics and neonatology that has occurred, this result can be attributed in part to the quality of supervision carried out by the senior obstetricians and in part to the existence of pathological consultation which takes place between colleagues about the therapy to be carried out in multidisciplinary meetings.
