CDC Science Clips: Volume 12, Issue 34, September 29, 2020
This week, Science Clips is pleased to feature articles on maternal health.
The United States faces high maternal mortality—nearly 700 women die from pregnancy-related causes every year. Two-thirds of these tragic deaths are preventable. In 2018, the U.S. maternal mortality rate was 17.4 per 100,000 live births, more than three times higher than countries of similar income and size. There are striking differences by race and ethnicity, with Black and American Indian/Alaska Native women two to three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than their White counterparts.
This week marks the release of the Surgeon General's Call to Action to Improve Maternal Health and the Department of Health and Human Services Action Plan to Improve Maternal Health in America. Ensuring the health and well-being of mothers is crucial to a healthy future. CDC undertakes activities to strengthen maternal mortality data and improve quality of care. In addition, CDC implemented the "Hear Her" campaign to shed light on and to spread potentially life-saving messages about urgent maternal warning signs during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The accompanying reading list is intended to build knowledge about maternal morbidity and mortality, as well as broader public health and clinical issues involving maternal health.The report consists of these components:
