Term (≥37 gestational weeks) infants in England with a diagnosis of brain injury to before and after exclusion of conditions leading to brain injury prior to birth; data for 2010 and 2011 are adjusted to account for the incomplete coverage of the NNRD during these years; from 2012 onwards the NNRD has complete population coverage of neonatal admissions in England so no adjustment was necessary and data are presented as a rate (95% CI)
