Abstract:
:Objective To explore whether the average price of houses per postcode sector [sector house average prices (SHAP)] is related to perinatal outcomes and whether gestational age would be lower and mortality higher in the least expensive areas compared to the most expensive. Methods All neonatal unit admissions at King's College Hospital from 1/1/2012 to 31/12/2016 were reviewed. The SHAP was retrieved from the Land Registry and the population was divided in equal quintiles with quintiles 1 and 5 representing the most and least expensive areas, respectively. Gestational age and birth weight z-score were collected. Mortality was defined as death before discharge from neonatal care. Results Three thousand three hundred and sixty infants were included and divided in quintiles consisting of 672 infants. Gestational age was lower in quintile 5 compared to all other quintiles (adjusted P<0.001). Birthweight z-score was not significantly different between the quintiles. The SHAP was lower in the infants who died before discharge (n=92) compared to the SHAP of the infants who were alive at discharge (n=3268) (P<0.001). Infants of quintile 5 had 6 times higher risk of death before discharge from neonatal care compared to infants of quintile 1. Conclusion Low SHAPs were associated with poorer perinatal outcomes suggesting SHAP could potentially be used in perinatal populations to determine socio-economic status and associated outcomes.
