Regional data collection commenced on 1 April 2009 as part of the NHS West Midlands’ Investing for Health Maternity / Perinatal Project. Information is extracted from the Pregnancy Notes and input into the PEER data collection tool by data clerks in Trusts in the West Midlands. The Information is collected from the maternity notes after delivery. Currently, digital pens are being developed as another means of data collection.

The principal aims of the programme are to collect standardised maternity data

  • for planning and delivery of maternity care, improving safety and reducing inequalities
  • to allow units to benchmark and monitor performance
  • for research into causes of perinatal mortality.

The Perinatal Institute has information governance, data sharing, confidentiality and consent policies in place, which are summarised here.
