Abstract
In 2003 the Rotunda Hospital remained very busy with 6,670 women delivering 6,790 babies greater than 500g. The overall perinatal mortality rate was 10.3 per 1,000 and when congenital abnormalities were excluded the perinatal mortality rate was 6.3. The Rotunda is focused on maintaining these excellent results and the staff should be proud of their efforts. The building programme reached completion in 2003. The long awaited Paediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the new postnatal Lillie Suite allow us to provide facilities to our patients of the highest possible standard. These new developments were opened by An Taoiseach Mr. Bertie Ahern in the summer of 2003. An extension to the HARI Unit which included new facilities for semen cryopreservation for cancer patients was opened by the Minister for Health Mr. Micheal Martin in July 2003. In addition new laboratories for Microbiology and Cytology and new on-call facilities were completed during the year.
