<< The researchers, led by Professor Gunther Heller,
from Philipps-University of Marburg, Germany, suggested several
explanations for the results. They included staff's increased physical and
mental fatigue during the night, or over-reliance on less experienced staff
during night shifts. Such situations were not specific to the NHS or the
British population, said the authors. They added: 'Better-designed shifts,
resulting in shorter working hours, or decreased workload with greater
supervision byexperienced staff at night, should be considered to reduce
early neonatal mortality during the night.' >>
This article should have been entitled Nightborn babies born IN HOSPITALS
have higher death rates.... it doesn't look like they considered a well-cared
for home born baby in the cohort anywhere...:(
More things to scare moms into submitting to convenient daytime CSections,
although Im not disputing their limited birth environment results...... aargh
