Hi Brigette, I am using the child file (KR). The issue was related to what the duration of pregnancy means. If preterm is defined as babies born alive before 37 weeks of pregnancy are completed, do we define a preterm birth as duration of pregnancy (b20) being smaller than 9 or smaller than 10, where smaller is < (not ≤)?
