Maternal and child mortality

MaternaL Mortality 289,000 women worldwide die each year as a result of pregnancy and childbirth. Most of these deaths are preventable Most of these women live in poor nations, and the disparities are immense: the lifetime risk of maternal mortality for a woman living in sub-Saharan Africa is over 47 times greater than for a woman living in the United States.

Maternal mortality Key drivers of inequity in coverage and access to quality services may include: poverty cultural and gender norms Age Ethnicity Religion economic status social stigma geographical location

Preventable death and suffering persists due to a myriad of factors, including a failure to provide quality services and a woman’s lack of agency to utilize services

Main Causes of Maternal Death obstetric hemorrhage (primarily postpartum) severe pre-eclampsia :a condition of pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure(hypertension) and protein in the urine (proteinuria Eclampsia: the development of seizures in a woman with severe preeclampsia. It has a 2% mortality (death) rate. puerperal sepsis: any bacterial infection of the female reproductive tract following childbirth or miscarriage.Signs and symptoms usually include a fever greater than 38.0 °C (100.4 °F), chills, lower abdominal pain, and possibly bad- smelling vaginal discharge unsafe abortion

Causes of Infant Mortality Worldwide Globally, the top five causes of infant death in 2010 Neonatal encephalopathy -problems with brain function after birth. Neonatal encephalopathy usually results from birth trauma or a lack of oxygen to the baby during birth. Infections, especially blood infections  Complications of preterm birth Lower respiratory infections (such as flu and pneumonia) Diarrheal diseases

Infant mortality Situation and trends In 2016, 4.2 million (75% of all under-five deaths) occurred within the first year of life. The risk of a child dying before completing the first year of age was highest in the WHO African Region (52 per 1000 live births), over six times higher than that in the WHO European Region (8 per 1000 live births). The infant mortality rate globally: 1990: 64.8 deaths per 1000 live births 2016: 30.5 deaths per 1000 live births Annual infant deaths have declined from 8.8 million in 1990 to 4.2 million in 2016.
