[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST 8eudIR0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. Different sources of prenatal care data were used to examine the association between birth outcomes of HIV-infected women and the Adequacy of Prenatal Care Utilization (APNCU) index. Methods. Adjusted odds ratios of birth outcomes for 1858 HIV-positive mothers were calculated for ANPCU indexes on the basis of birth certificate data or 3 types of physician visits on Medicaid claims. Results. Claims-and birth certificate-based APNCU indexes agreed poorly (kappa<0.3). Only the broadest claims-based ANCPU index had lower adjusted odds ratios for low birth-weight (0.64 ; 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.49,0.84) and preterm birth (0.70 ; 95% CI=0.54,0.91). The birth certificate-based index had a reduced adjusted odds ratios (0.73 ; 95% CI=0.56,0.95) only for preterm birth. Conclusions. The association of birth outcomes and adequacy of prenatal care in this HIV-infected cohort differed significantly depending on the source of prenatal care data.
