Out -
of -
hospital births were also associated with a higher rate
of unassisted vaginal delivery and lower rates
of obstetrical interventions and NICU admission than in -
hospital births, findings that corroborate the results
of earlier studies.3 - 5 These associations follow logically from the more conservative approach to intervention that characterizes the midwifery model
of care8, 19 and from the fact that obstetrical interventions are either rare (e.g., induction
of labor) 20 or unavailable (e.g., cesarean delivery, whether at home or at a birth center) outside the
hospital setting.
Rates
of obstetrical intervention are high in U.S.
hospitals, and we found large absolute differences in the risks
of these interventions between planned
out -
of -
hospital births and in -
hospital births.38 In contrast, serious adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes are infrequent in all the birth
settings we assessed, and the absolute differences in risk that we observed between planned birth locations were correspondingly small; for example, planned
out -

hospital births were associated with an excess
of less than 1 fetal death per 1000 deliveries in multivariate and propensity - score - adjusted analyses.

of our regression analysis, we performed covariate adjustment with derived propensity scores to calculate the absolute risk difference (details are provided in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text
of this article at NEJM.org).14, 15 To calculate the adjusted absolute risk difference, we used predictive margins and G - computation (i.e., regression - model — based outcome prediction in both exposure
settings: planned in -
hospital and planned
out -
of -
hospital birth).16, 17 Finally, we conducted post hoc analyses to assess associations between planned
out -
of -
hospital birth and outcomes (cesarean delivery and a composite
of perinatal morbidity and mortality), which were stratified according to parity, maternal age, maternal education, and risk level.

out -
of -
hospital birth than with planned in -
hospital birth, but the absolute risk
of death was low in both
settings.
