I planned my home birth with Alivio Medical Center, on the Near Southwest Side of Chicago, which follows these medical guidelines for
exclusion from home birth.
Not exact matches
In order to draw any conclusion about the differences between
home and hospital
births from the Canadian study, the
home birth outcomes should have been compared with hospital outcomes only of women satisfying the same
exclusion criteria.
Exclusion criteria before
birth:
home address outside the greater Dunedin area, planning to move away
from Dunedin in the next 2 years, booked into the maternity centre after 34 - week gestation, or unable to communicate in English or Te Reo Maori [language of the indigenous (Maori) ethnic group of New Zealand].
This
exclusion does not apply to a Newborn who is enrolled within 31 days of
birth or a newly adopted child who is enrolled within 31 days
from either the date of placement of the child in the
home or the date of the final decree of adoption.
