Heat Waves and Early Birth: Exploring Vulnerability by Individual‐ and Area‐Level Factors

Heat Waves and Early Birth: Exploring Vulnerability by Individual‐ and Area‐Level Factors

Abstract Extreme heat has been linked to many health outcomes, including preterm and early term birth. We examine associations between acute heat wave exposure and risk of preterm (PTB) (28–36 weeks) or early term (ETB) (37–38 weeks) birth, stratified by individual‐level and area‐level factors.
