Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS)

PRAMS is an ongoing population-based survey of new mothers in New York City (NYC) designed to monitor maternal experiences and behaviors before, during and after pregnancy. Findings from PRAMS are used by the Bureau of Maternal, Infant, and Reproductive Health to: enhance our understanding of maternal behaviors that are important for good reproductive outcomes and infant health [Epidemiology Grand Rounds PDF Document (Reader Required; Click to Download)]; develop and evaluate programs to improve maternal and infant health; and inform policy development relevant to reproductive health.

The tables below include selected results from the 2004-2005, 2006, and 2007 NYC PRAMS surveys. Additional data for key indicators from the PRAMS survey is available through the CPONDER system. CPONDER is a web-based, menu-driven query system for generating analytic reports and graphs using PRAMS data, and is available at CPONDER.
