Formula:
The Hospital Birth Rate is typically calculated as the percentage of live births relative to the total number of maternity admissions for delivery within a specific period. The formula used is:
Hospital Birth Rate (%) = (Total Live Births / Total Maternity Admissions) × 100
- Total Live Births: The total count of infants born alive at your facility during the defined period (e.g., month, quarter, year).
- Total Maternity Admissions: The total number of patients admitted to the maternity ward specifically for delivery-related services within the same defined period.
This metric provides insight into the proportion of admissions resulting in a live birth, aiding in efficiency and demographic studies.
