Description:This manual describes strategies for conducting pregnancy-related or maternal mortality surveillance in the United States. This surveillance is an ongoing process of identifying pregnancy-related deaths, reviewing the factors that led to those deaths, analyzing and interpreting the information gathered, and acting on the results so as to reduce such deaths in the future. The ultimate purpose of this surveillance process is to stimulate action rather than merely to count cases and calculate rates or ratios. All these steps—identification, data collection and analysis, and action—are needed on an ongoing basis in order to justify the effort and reduce pregnancy-related deaths.
