Birth weight and Age-at-death Boxes for Intervention and Evaluation System (BABIES) Matrix. NOTE: ‘Macerated’ refers to a fetal death that occurs in pregnancy before labor has started (macerated stillbirth). ‘Fresh’ refers to a fetal death that occurs during labor (fresh stillbirth). ‘Pre-discharge’ refers to a baby born alive that dies prior to discharge from the health facility (early neonatal death). These three columns sum to the total number of perinatal deaths. NOTE: The boxes are color-coded to define the timing of when interventions could be targeted for prevention. The blue-colored outcomes of very low birthweight newborns may align with interventions targeting pre-pregnancy health. The orange-colored outcomes may align with interventions targeting pregnancy. The red-colored outcomes may align with interventions during the intrapartum period. The green-colored outcomes may align with interventions in the early neonatal, pre-discharge period
