  1. Michigan Birth Defects Registry Overview and Status

  2. Some Key Facts • Established by Act 236 of 1988 • Requires Reporting by Hospitals and Cytogenetics Laboratories • Passive Reporting • Defined List of Reportable Conditions • Reporting Began State Wide in 1992

  3. Statement of Purpose • Source of Statistical Data • Surveillance of Birth Defects Trends • Permit Research into Etiology • Enable Referral to Needed Services

  4. Reportable Conditions • Congenital Anomalies • Excludes only minor conditions • Other Conditions that Associate • Immune/Metabolic Deficiencies • Other Abnormalities • Infectious Disease Exposures • Syphilis/Rubella/CMV/etc • Maternal Exposures • Alcohol/Drugs/Toxic Agents

  5. Current Status of the Registry Processed 393,616 reports • Registry Contains 199,516 Cases • Linked to Live Birth Registry • Linked to Mortality Files • Linked to Program Data • EHDI, CSHCS, Newborn Screening, Medicaid

  6. Information Collected • Case Specifics • Name and address • SSN, Medical Record Number • Mother’s Information • Reportable Diagnostics • Procedures Provided • Live Birth Data • Mortality Data

  7. Data Collection Activities • Process 32,000 reports annually • 12,000 New Cases Annually • Augment Case Reports • Pediatric Genetics Clinics • Early Hearing and Detection • Metabolic Screening Cases • Medicaid/Childrens Special Health Care • Hospital Discharge Data

  8. Status of Fetal Deaths • Previously Prohibited • Change in Law effective June 2003 • Act 562 of 2002 • Implemented Certificate of Stillbirth • June 1, 2003 • Stillbirth Birth Defects Reporting • January 1, 2004

  9. Field Quality Assurance Activities in Michigan Monitoring Reporting Quality of the Birth Defects Registry

  10. Data Quality Goals • Completeness • 95% or Greater • Accuracy • 98% or Greater • Timeliness • data available within 24 months

  11. Significant Issues • Hospital and Lab Based • Limited to under 2 Years • No Interstate Exchange • Live Births only until 2004 • Passive Reporting

  12. Findings of 2003 Data Quality Audit • Completeness of 92% • Diagnostic Reporting Accuracy of 97.8% • False Positive Rate of 1.2%

  13. Quality Improvement Activities • Facility Monitoring • Reports Received/Expected • Target Suspect Facilities • Conduct Facility Audits • Case-finding • Re-abstracting • Repeat Statewide Assessment • Evaluate 2005 reporting

  14. Statistical Data Now Available www.michigan.gov/mdch • 1992 through 2005 Birth Cohorts • Numbers of Cases and Deaths • Incidence and Mortality Rates • Comparative Data on Live Births • Information by Type of Condition • County Level Data

  15. Evaluation of Case Referrals • Regional Review of Cases • Review of Case Management • Medical Records Review • Early On, CHSCH Referrals • Source of Referral/Referral Practices • Survey of Families • Utilization of Services • Perceived Need • Survey of Physicians • Knowledge and Practice

  16. Collaboration with EHDI • Assist with Data on Screens • Refer Cases of Hearing Loss • Provide Statistical Assistance • EHDI Confirmed Diagnosis Data to Improve Completeness and Accuracy

  17. Cross Reference of Confirmed EDHI to MBDR Reports Live Births from 1997 - 2000

  18. Folic Acid Education Program • Basic Data on Neural Tube Defects • Rapid Case Reporting -CDC • Use of Case Reports for Family Contact Approved

  19. Additional CollaborationsEarly ON, CSHCS, Medicaid • Basic Statistical Data • Program Specific • Comparison Data • Program Evaluation • Coverage/Penetration • Trends/Outcomes • Outreach • Registry Improvement

  20. Early On Clients and Michigan Births by Mother’s Age Births during 1995 - 1997

  21. Early On Clients and Michigan Birthsby Prenatal Care Trimester Births during 1995 - 1997

  22. Early On Clients and Michigan Births by Birth Weight Births during 1995 - 1997

  23. Registry Research Collaborations • Birth Defects Among Infants Perinatally Exposed to HIV • Mortality in Children with Birth Defects • Evaluation of Potential Clusters • Rate of Subsequent NTDs to Mothers with an NTD Child • Analysis of Newborn Blood Spots for Selected Children with Birth Defects

  24. Developed CSHCS Linked Study File1998-2003 • Determined MBDR/CSHCS Status • Merged Birth/Death/MBDR Data • Identified MBDR Cases – CSHCS Eligible • Identified CSHCS Cases – MBDR Eligible

  25. Differences Between CSHCS Eligible Children and MBDR Reportable Conditions Are Expected • Fundamental Differences • Differences in Criteria for CSHCS and MBDR • Children Leaving CSHCS • Data Comparability Issues/Problems • Late Reporting/ Timing Issues • Completeness • MBDR Primarily Hospital Based • MBDR Reportable to 2 Years

  26. Considerations • Geographic Variation • Variation by Birth Facility • Financial Need • Pay Source from Birth File • Diagnostics • Severity
