Additional file 1: Table S1. of Comparing very low birth weight versus very low gestation cohort methods for outcome analysis of high risk preterm infants

Consensus definitions of important variables. Definitions of neonatal outcomes with consensus definitions agreed upon by the CNN, ANZNN and SNQ. Table S2: Stratified outcomes between networks. (a): Unadjusted perinatal risks, mortality and major neonatal morbidities among SNQ, ANZNN and CNN infants during 2008–2011 by gestational age groups. (b): Unadjusted perinatal risks, mortality and major neonatal morbidities among SNQ, ANZNN and CNN infants during 2008–2011 by birth weight groups. Table S3: Cross comparison of predictive power of very low birth weight (VLBW) and very low gestational age (VLGA) based models. Table S4: Comparisons of infant and perinatal characteristics and neonatal outcomes among networks (ANZNN, CNN, SNQ) for the 2 extreme components of the very low gestational age cohort and very low birth weight cohort 2008–2011 admissions [25–27, 57–59].
