This report summarises data from the 2009 Northern Territory (NT) Midwives’
Collection. It includes population characteristics of mothers, maternal health status,
antenatal information, conditions and procedures used in labour and childbirth as well
as birth outcomes of all births that occurred in 2009. While the NT Midwives’ Collection
contains information on both NT residents and interstate residents who gave birth in
the NT, the focus of this report is NT residents who gave birth in the NT. Unless
otherwise stated, the following key findings are for NT residents.
