Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Dr. John Iskander and Dr. Allen Mitchell discuss some of the public health advances in preventing birth defects. Birth defects are common, occurring in 1 in 33 pregnancies and affecting 120,000 babies born each year. While the vast majority of their causes remain unknown, there is much that public health workers and individuals can do to reduce the risk of birth defects.
Public health workers must continue to: • Identify genetic and environmental causes of birth defects, • Monitor medications that may increase or decrease risk to pregnant women and • Implement simple interventions that may help to reduce risk. Individuals must: • Manage pre-pregnancy obesity, • Control blood sugar and diabetes and • Avoid smoking.
