Abstract
In order to identify risk factors for preterm birth in singletons, data from a population-based case control survey on the island of Curacao were re-analysed. Both medical and sociodemographic variables were examined. Overall, a history of previous preterm birth and severe hypertension during the index pregnancy were indicators of adverse pregnancy outcome, in terms of preterm birth. The contribution of sociodemographic factors to the risk of preterm birth is relatively low.
