The medical community tends to advocate for early initiation of antenatal care (ANC) for the prevention of adverse birth outcomes. Despite this suggestion, the population impact of early ANC remains unclear. To this end, we have undertaken a retrospective cohort study of pregnant women using public perinatal services in Cape Town, South Africa. The study includes all women (n=35,473) from the CRADLE database who gave birth between 01 January 2007 and 31 December 2009 and had a booking examination between 01 April 2006 and 31 March 2009. 2014-12-26T14:18:47Z 2014-12-26T14:18:47Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10136 eng application/pdf Department of Public Health and Family Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
