Wednesday, October 25, 2023

BOSTON, Oct. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Center for Black Maternal Health and Reproductive Justice announced today its participation in a new study that revealed pregnancy-associated deaths as an urgent public health concern deserving greater scrutiny by maternal mortality review committees and the clinical and public health community at large.

It also identified four times as many pregnancy-associated deaths than pregnancy-related ones and a high rate of hospital contacts (hospital admission, observational stays, and ER visits) for those who ultimately died during pregnancy through one year postpartum.
