<section class="abstract"><p class="chapter-para"><strong>Background:</strong> International comparisons of perinatal health indicators are complicated by the heterogeneity of data sources on pregnancy, maternal and neonatal outcomes. Record linkage can extend the range of data items available and thus can improve the validity and quality of routine data. We sought to assess the extent to which data are linked routinely for perinatal health research and reporting. <strong>Methods:</strong> We conducted a systematic review of the literature by searching PubMed for perinatal health studies from 2001 to 2011 based on linkage of routine data (data collected continuously at various time intervals). We also surveyed European health monitoring professionals about use of linkage for national perinatal health surveillance. <strong>Results:</strong> 516 studies fit our inclusion criteria. Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden, the US and the UK contributed 76% of the publications; a further 29 countries contributed at least one publication. Most studies linked vital statistics, hospital records, medical birth registries and cohort data. Other sources were specific registers for: cancer (70), congenital anomalies (56), ART (19), census (19), health professionals (37), insurance (22) prescription (31), and level of education (18). Eighteen of 29 countries (62%) reported linking data for routine perinatal health monitoring. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Research using linkage is concentrated in a few countries and is not widely practiced in Europe. Broader adoption of data linkage could yield substantial gains for perinatal health research and surveillance. </p></section> <div class="article-metadata-panel clearfix at-ArticleMetadata"></div> <h2 scrollto-destination=41618578 id="41618578" class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" >Introduction</h2> <p class="chapter-para"> International comparisons of perinatal health indicators provide valuable evidence for public policy planning and practice by allowing benchmarking across countries, and revealing the diversity in clinical practice related to antenatal and delivery care. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B1"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B1" data-open="ckv231-B1" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>1</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B2"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B2" data-open="ckv231-B2" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>2</sup></a> In Europe, recent results from the European Perinatal Health Report 2010 (EPHR 2010) showed wide differences in health outcomes and indicators of clinical practice.

Routine data sources are those that collect information continuously or regularly (in the case of surveys). We used the following key works: data linkage, perinat <sup>*,</sup> matern*, link*, registr*, medical record linkage, infant newborn and birth certificates. Publications were screened by the first author based on information provided in the titles and abstracts. We identified 990 studies from which we excluded conference reports, summaries and reviews. We did not include studies with data that are not regularly repeated. We included research related to the perinatal period: pregnancy, delivery and the post-partum, which linked two or more routine datasets together or paired mother and newborn records within the same data collection system. Studies linking pregnancy or birth cohorts to routine datasets were included. To increase coverage, we contacted Scientific Committee (SC) members of the Euro-Peristat network for any additional research articles that we might have missed from their countries. Our final sample included 516 studies.

We categorized studies based on their outcome variables into the following research themes: (i) fetal, neonatal and child health, (ii) maternal health and (iii) methods – this theme included studies focused on validating data through record linkage use, or on usage of specific data linkage techniques such as probabilistic vs. deterministic methods. We further assessed which of our included studies were longitudinal. We flagged studies as ‘longitudinal’ when researchers studied the impact of health events outside the perinatal period (i.e. exposure to environmental risk factors during pre-conception) on outcomes during the perinatal period (i.e. birth weight), or when researchers studied the influence of perinatal risk factors (i.e. preterm birth) on longer term maternal or child health outcomes (i.e. educational attainment). Data extraction was carried out by the first author and validated by the co-authors.</p> <h4 scrollto-destination=41618590 id="41618590" class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" >Analysis</h4> <p class="chapter-para">We identified recurrent and less common linkages based on the types of data sources used, such as linkage of vital statistics data and medical birth register data, and how often these were linked across studies. All original data sources were accounted for in the analyses. In the Netherlands for instance, birth data held in the medical birth register are compiled from data held in the obstetric, paediatric and neonatal registers. Similarly, linked datasets such as the Oxford Record Linkage Study were described in terms of their constituent datasets (i.e. linkage of civil registration data, hospital discharge data and domiciliary midwives case notes). Data were analyzed using STATA 13.0 software (StataCorp LP, College Station, TX). We used the software to describe the overall characteristics of the studies included in this review such as the time period, country, or the topic area, and also to identify and keep track of the different possible types of linkages available in the literature and their associated study outcomes.</p> <h3 scrollto-destination=41618592 id="41618592" class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" >Data on routine linkages from the Euro-peristat network</h3> <p class="chapter-para">We used data collected for the EPHR 2010 supplemented by additional information from the Euro-Peristat Scientific Committee (SC). Euro-Peristat indicators were compiled from routine aggregate data available from population-based registers. As part of the data collection exercise, SC members were asked to describe the characteristics of their national data systems and in particular: inclusion criteria, year in which the data source began, estimates of coverage (i.e. nationals vs. residents), capacity and use of linkage, and plans to modify or extend the data source.</p><p class="chapter-para">SC members were also asked to confirm the availability in routine of the most prevalent linkage types identified in our review of the literature: (i) linkage of birth and death certificates, (ii) vital statistics and medical birth register data, (iii) medical birth register data and hospital discharge data and (iv) vital statistics and hospital discharge data. In our study, vital statistics data included: birth certificates, death certificates and/or data on causes of death. We identified hospital discharge data, as all data extracted from admissions, inpatient care or other clinical records (i.e. maternity records or pediatric records). SC members could specify any other routine linkage available in their country which might not have been recorded for the Euro-Peristat data collection.</p> <h2 scrollto-destination=41618595 id="41618595" class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" >Results</h2> <p class="chapter-para"><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-T1"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-T1" data-open="ckv231-T1" class="link link-reveal link-table xref-fig">Table 1</a> shows that there were wide variations in the use of record linkage in perinatal health research between 2001 and 2011.

Three quarters of the studies were from a selected few countries namely the Nordic countries (in particular Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden), the US and the UK which contributed 43%, 19% and 12% of the publications, respectively. Australia and Canada contributed another 12% of the studies but other countries contributed many fewer; twenty two European countries published between 1 and 11 studies accounting all together for about 5% of our study sample. We compared the distribution of studies by groups of countries (Nordic, US, UK and other) between two time periods (2001–2006 and 2007–2011) and it was similar ( <em>P</em> = .224). The number of routine data sources used varied between 1 (i.e. when mother and newborn records were paired within the same data source) and 7 (mainly in the Nordic countries), but most studies used 2–3 data sources. The majority of studies merged vital statistics data and hospital discharge data, but other linkage types were also identified. </p><p class="chapter-para"><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-T2"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-T2" data-open="ckv231-T2" class="link link-reveal link-table xref-fig">Table 2</a> shows the wide variety of linkage types performed in perinatal health research between 2001 and 2011; we display the distribution of perinatal health record linkage studies for which at least two distinct types of routine data sources were used. We identified 16 types of data sources in the literature and tabulated all two-by-two linkages between these data sources as well as the total number of studies in which each type of data source was used. For example, in a Swedish study that linked three population-based data sources (the Medical birth register (MBR), hospital discharge data and the Prescription drug register), <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B12"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B12" data-open="ckv231-B12" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>12</sup></a> we counted the following two-by-two linkages: (i) MBR with Hospital discharge data, (ii) MBR with Prescription drugs register and (iii) Prescription drugs register with hospital discharge data. Linkages were distributed unevenly across routine data sources. The 254 linkages involving vital statistics data were the most common. Next, 219 linkages with medical birth registers and 203 with hospital discharge data provided more detailed data on pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum; and finally, studies linking socio-economic data from other sources, e.g. census data, were the least prevalent. </p> <a id="41618600" scrollto-destination="41618600"></a> <div content-id="ckv231-T2" class="table-modal table-full-width-wrap"><div class="table-wrap table-wide standard-table"><div class="table-wrap-title" id="ckv231-T2" data-id="ckv231-T2"><span class="label title-label" id="label-93141">Table 2</span><div class="

A further 14 focused on the methods for extending routine data to serve other functions such as pharmacological surveillance and research on child abuse. From these studies, we identified procedures related to the general ascertainment of births, including underreporting of births at early gestations, completeness of population coverage and identification of multiple births. There were ten which related to procedures to identify maternal deaths, 7 relating to the ascertainment of fetal and infant deaths and 7 network or register audits. Some studies focused on validation of data items: 18 on the presence and characteristics of birth defects, one on assisted reproductive techniques (ART), three on obstetric history and one on social characteristics. A further 26 studies focused on metrics to validate deterministic and probabilistic linkages.</p><p class="chapter-para"><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-T4"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-T4" data-open="ckv231-T4" class="link link-reveal link-table xref-fig">Table 4</a> provides an overview of routine perinatal health linkages performed in countries reporting data to Euro-Peristat. Among the 29 European countries participating in the Euro-Peristat project, 18 report using at least one type of linkage for routine statistics and 11 do not. Supplementary Annex SI provides more information on linked sources used in the 2010 report. Some countries such as Denmark can link their data systems for research projects but these linkages are not routine. Countries which currently merge national level datasets for perinatal health surveillance essentially link birth and death data but the data sources used for this type of linkage vary. Cyprus, Finland, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, Sweden, UK Scotland, Iceland and the Czech Republic link data from their medical birth registers with death certificates. Austria, Belgium, Estonia, France, Germany, Poland, Switzerland and UK: England and Wales routinely link their birth and death data from vital statistics data sources alone. Similarly, data on births and from hospital discharge systems can be linked using vital statistics as in Scotland and Sweden, or data from a medical birth register as in Luxembourg. Seven countries carry out national linkages with hospital discharge data although in Germany this is done at the regional level only, in Lower Saxony. Other reported linkages involve congenital anomaly registers, cause-of-death data, registers on level of education, or are done at the regional-level only. These other linkages are exclusively performed in countries where birth and death data are routinely linked at the national level. </p> <a id="41618607" scrollto-destination="41618607"></a> <div content-id="ckv231-T4" class="table-modal table-full-width-wrap"><div class="table-wrap table-wide standard-table"><div class="table-wrap-title" id="ckv231-T4" data-id="ckv231-T4"><span class="label title-label" id="label-93141">Table 4</span><div class="

id="41618608" class="section-title js-splitscreen-section-title" >Discussion</h2> <p class="chapter-para"> By harmonizing data systems, and ensuring completeness of coverage, record linkage increases the information available about each birth and can enhance the quality of perinatal health data. However, our review shows that this technique is largely under-used in Europe: 11 out of 29 countries do not routinely link data on births and only 18 countries perform basic linkages such as linking birth and death certificates. Also, linkage studies were concentrated in a small set of countries; almost half of the studies published from 2001 to 2011 originated from the Nordic countries ( <em>N</em> = 223). In the Nordic countries, the types of linkages performed for perinatal health surveillance were also more diverse than anywhere else in Europe. </p><p class="chapter-para"> Historical differences in health information capacity between countries may explain some of the variation in record linkage use in Europe. In England and Wales for instance, initiatives to link birth and death certificates began in 1950 in order to maximize the value of existing routine data and develop capacity for analyses of perinatal and infant mortality <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B58"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B58" data-open="ckv231-B58" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>58</sup></a> —this linkage has been routine since 1975. The Oxford Record Linkage Study (ORLS), which started in the 1960s was seminal as both a research tool and a means to improve the quality of health care services. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B13"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B13" data-open="ckv231-B13" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>13</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B58"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B58" data-open="ckv231-B58" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>58</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B59"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B59" data-open="ckv231-B59" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>59</sup></a> The Nordic countries have also had a long standing tradition of maintaining birth registers, as early as the 1950s in some countries, <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B60"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B60" data-open="ckv231-B60" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>60</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B61"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B61" data-open="ckv231-B61" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>61</sup></a> and this has allowed for broader application of linkage techniques in perinatal health research. Longer follow-up time broadens the scope of potential research questions and enables studies across generations. </p><p class="chapter-para"> The reasons for linkage are related to the organization of the health and data collection systems and these vary across countries. For example, in the Netherlands, midwives, general practitioners, obstetricians and neonatologist have separate databases which are linked to bring together perinatal care data for women who have been client of more than one profession, <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B62"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B62" data-open="ckv231-B62" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>62</sup></a> but other countries do not need to do this. Another example relates to cause of death recording: in the UK causes of death are recorded on stillbirth and death certificates, while in France linkage is necessary to access this information because civil registration of deaths is distinct from the medical certification of the causes. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B7"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B7" data-open="ckv231-B7" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>7</sup></a></p><p class="chapter-para"> Capacity for linkage also depends on the availability of matching variables. Whereas many national registers in Europe anonymize their records, others countries and in particular the Nordic countries make universal identification numbers available in all their routine databases. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B8"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B8" data-open="ckv231-B8" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>8</sup></a> Universal identifiers facilitate linkage between statistical, administrative and health authorities, although in the absence of identifying variables probabilistic techniques can be used. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B63"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B63" data-open="ckv231-B63" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>63</sup></a> In the Netherlands, validation of the probabilistic approach applied to the Dutch Perinatal registers yielded less than 1% error. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B62"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B62" data-open="ckv231-B62" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>62</sup></a></p><p class="chapter-para"> There are multiple obstacles associated with linkage including cultural, organizational, structural, legal and technical issues. Specific obstacles identified in research on linkage include high costs, lack of software compatibility, need for additional statistical training, poor access to electronic records, missing data or varying interpretations of data privacy frameworks across organizations. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B64 ckv231-B65 ckv231-B66"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B64 ckv231-B65 ckv231-B66" data-open="ckv231-B64 ckv231-B65 ckv231-B66" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>64–66</sup></a> Data systems are also often managed by different institutions and communication and identification of common goals may hamper efforts to merge data sources. Moreover, concerns over privacy and the biases introduced when linkages are incomplete may influence countries’ willingness to institute routine linkage. Further research is needed to explore these obstacles, particularly how they have been overcome in countries that have instituted routine linkage, and their relative weight in countries where linkage is underdeveloped. </p><p class="chapter-para"> Our results underscore the multiple ways that record linkage can improve capacity for high quality perinatal health surveillance. First of all, data from the methods studies in the literature review showed that linkage can be used for validation and to ascertain new perinatal data items and outcomes. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B62"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B62" data-open="ckv231-B62" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>62</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B65"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B65" data-open="ckv231-B65" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>65</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B67"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B67" data-open="ckv231-B67" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>67</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B68"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B68" data-open="ckv231-B68" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>68</sup></a> In France for instance, linkage of the deaths of women of childbearing age to birth records and hospital discharge data makes it possible to account for all maternal deaths and reduce underreporting. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B7"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B7" data-open="ckv231-B7" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>7</sup></a> Further, by linking birth certificate data on gestational age and birth weight with death certificates it is possible to calculate subgroup mortality rates which are essential for monitoring infant health status and understanding patterns of mortality over time. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B3"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B3" data-open="ckv231-B3" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>3</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B6"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B6" data-open="ckv231-B6" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>6</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B65"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B65" data-open="ckv231-B65" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>65</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B69"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B69" data-open="ckv231-B69" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>69</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B70"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B70" data-open="ckv231-B70" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>70</sup></a> Because vital statistics data are available everywhere in Europe, <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B1"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B1" data-open="ckv231-B1" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>1</sup></a> basic linkage of birth and death certificates should be possible in all countries.

Whereas only two countries, Finland and Malta, conduct routine linkages with their congenital anomaly registers, these types of linkages were frequent in the literature. In about 15% of studies, researchers focused on the impact of ART as well as on the effects of teratogens and prescription drugs on congenital anomalies. For example, two US studies looked at exposure to anesthetic gases and congenital anomalies in offspring of female registered nurses <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B83"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B83" data-open="ckv231-B83" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>83</sup></a> and the association between maternal exposure to ambient air pollution and congenital heart disease. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B84"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B84" data-open="ckv231-B84" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>84</sup></a></p><p class="chapter-para">More generally, our review shows that linkage of routine data systems is a valuable tool for research which can provide insight into maternal and infant health indicators but also into the etiology, prognosis and consequences of conditions such as Legg Calves Perthes disease, cerebral palsy, or multiple sclerosis. Linkage of routine systems also facilitates life-course research on the long term outcomes of mothers and their newborns. Half of the studies in our review were longitudinal. A cohort, e.g. of all women of reproductive age, can be identified and monitored by linking data relating to these women from multiple data sources thereby increasing the power of statistical analyses without having to incur the costs of a long follow-up time.</p><p class="chapter-para">This systematic review builds on a large number of studies linking routine databases on perinatal health. We also identified countries in which linkage is currently undertaken for routine perinatal health monitoring to get information about the linkages put in place and to permit other countries to benefit from their experience. In countries where specific data sets are linked regularly, as in the Nordic countries, authors did not always explicitly mention ‘linkage’ in the abstracts. This could have led to an under-estimation of the number of perinatal health studies published during our review period. We only included studies in referenced databases and thus did not include studies published on statistical institution’s websites only or other types of grey literature such as agency health and policy reports. Also, countries differed in the terminologies they used for their data sources, especially when translating them into English and this can make it difficult to distinguish between e.g. a morbidity database, hospital records and a birth register.</p><p class="chapter-para">Data linkage increases the availability of data for surveillance and assessment of differences across countries and over time. Linkage techniques can also contribute to the generation of knowledge about the causes and consequences of ill health. More specifically, linkage of data from birth and death certificates provides more and higher quality information about mortality and should be prioritized in countries where these sources are not yet linked. Linking hospital discharge data and civil registration data should also be a priority as it increases the amount of information available about each birth and can be used to double check the completeness of registration of births and deaths in hospital databases. Finally, linkage makes it possible to augment commonly available birth data with information on specific outcomes or exposures in relation to health and well-being across the life course. These linkages will depend on other existing databases (i.e. congenital anomalies registers, pharmaceutical databases) and the use of linkage for surveillance and research in other health areas and sectors such as education, employment or housing.</p><p class="chapter-para"> In conclusion, some countries integrate data linkage into their routine perinatal health surveillance systems and make these data available for research, but this is not a universal practice throughout Europe. Current discussion at the EU-level and across Member States includes moving towards the establishment of a European health information system, and strengthening health reporting mechanisms. <span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B85"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B85" data-open="ckv231-B85" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>85</sup></a><sup>,</sup><span class="xrefLink" id="jumplink-ckv231-B86"></span><a href="javascript:;" reveal-id="ckv231-B86" data-open="ckv231-B86" class="link link-ref link-reveal xref-bibr"><sup>86</sup></a> Linking data on perinatal health is a feasible and readily available option for improving the quality and completeness of health indicators thereby adding value to existing national and international investment in health information.
