Usage Considerations

Vital statistics include records dealing with births, marriages, stillbirths and deaths; all events which have to do with an individual's entrance or departure from life, together with changes in civil status. Stillbirth means the complete expulsion or extraction from its birth mother after at least 20 weeks of pregnancy, or after its having attained a weight of at least 500 grams, of a product of conception in which, after the expulsion or extraction, there is no breathing, no beating of the heart, no pulsation of the umbilical cord, and no unmistakable movement of voluntary muscle. Gestation is the time between the conception and birth of an infant, the usual length being 40 weeks.
