| dc.description.abstract | When a woman dies in childbirth, during pregnancy, or soon after delivery, it is devastating to her family and the rest of society. Due to complications during pregnancy or delivery, about 700 women in the U.S. die each year. U.S healthcare spending and medical technology are among the world’s best. To increase family and community well-being, it is predicted that death rates in particular sectors would be well-managed. Data demonstrates that the United States has a far lower maternal death rate than other industrialized countries. Pregnancy-related deaths rose by more than a third between 1987 and 2015. A woman’s chance of dying during or shortly after pregnancy is affected by racial inequities in this growing rate. Many of the causes of maternal fatalities may be prevented, according to research. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2 out of 3 of these deaths may be avoided. Maternal mortality has increased over the previous decade, and this research examines what may be done to combat this problem and enhance obstetric care for all women in the U.S. As part of these initiatives, the perinatal health community is encouraged to better communicate with one another, national bundles are being used in critical maternal care areas, and regional assessments of maternal death cases are being requested. The reduction of this public health hazard necessitates the implementation of these measures on a nationwide scale. | uk |
