Summary
The outcome of 59 triplet pregnancies from four hospitals was analyzed. The combined stillbirth and neonatal mortality rate was 232/1000. Preterm labour and birth order were the most important identifiable factors in relation to neonatal death. Birth weight within a triplet set and malpresentation were not related to neonatal death. Elective cervical suture appeared to be of no value in prolonging gestation.
