“…The overall agreement estimate observed in this study, 92.4%, was similar to overall agreements of 86.6% to 100% reported in other validation studies of nurse‐midwifery birth databases . These other studies, however, evaluated a small numbers of births, between 10 and 148 versus 3133 in the present study.…”

“…For example, the NMCDS was validated in 1989 in a single small pilot study . Subsequently, an adjunct data collection tool to the NMCDS was developed and validated, but this tool was primarily designed to identify comparison participants for birth center research . Validation substudies of other nurse‐midwifery birth databases were included as part of 2 other research projects .…”

“…We used data from the San Diego Birth Center Study (SDBCS), a prospective longitudinal study that compared safety and resource use in a birth center delivery model with collaborative care by certified nurse‐midwives and medical doctors to a traditional model of hospital deliveries attended by medical doctors. More detailed information regarding the study and eligibility criteria has already been published 5–7 . In brief, the study enrolled a total of 2957 underserved women in the San Diego area from February 1, 1994 to November 1, 1996.…”

Using data from the San Diego Birth Center Study that enrolled underserved women between 1994 and 1996, we examined demographic, sociobehavioral, and medical predictors of hospital transfer in a group of women who intended to deliver at a freestanding birth center. Of the 1808 women, 34.6% transferred to the hospital antenatally and 19.6% transferred during labor, while 45.7% delivered at the birth center. Compared with multiparous women who had never had a cesarean and never had a previous hospital delivery, nulliparous women were 2.0 times more likely (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-2.7), multiparous women with a previous cesarean were 2.6 times more likely (95% CI, 1.7-3.8), and women without a previous cesarean but who had a previous hospital delivery were 2.1 times more likely (95% CI, 1.5-3.0) to transfer after adjusting for other predictors of transfer. Nulliparity, cesarean history and having a previous hospital delivery were among the strongest predictors of a hospital transfer even after adjusting for demographic, sociobehavioral, and other medical conditions. Understanding predictors of transfer may assist practitioners, patients, and policy makers in considering the appropriateness of individuals for birth center delivery or to target further education to reduce nonmedical transfers.
