PY - 2018 T2 - Rudolph's Pediatrics, 23e AB - Birth defects are relatively common, with major anomalies occurring in approximately 3% to 4% of live births. More than 20% of infant deaths in the United States are directly attributable to birth defects. In addition to mortality, birth defects also cause long-term morbidity, including intellectual disability and physical dysfunction, that can limit the productivity of individuals. These long-term disabilities can have significant impact on individuals, families, healthcare systems, and communities.
