The most prevalent ICD 10 codes as the principal cause of maternal death were unspecified abortion (54.7%) followed by the ICD codes for Spontaneous abortion (18%) and failed abortion attempt (14.1%). Less than 2% of cases were abortions for medical and legal reasons. The socioeconomic profile was women aged 20 to 29 years (45.3%), black (68.8%) and education was between 8 and 11 years of study (40.6). In the COVID-19 pandemic, RMMA increased by 4.27%. The North region is the one with the highest MMR in the country and abortion continues to be one of the main causes of death. The women who die most are young, black, with low education and without a partner, confirming the characteristics that predict death from abortion.

Thus, we seek to understand how neoliberal logic is associated with psychiatric knowledge and consequently influences the increase in diagnoses of mental disorders in contemporary times. To achieve this goal, we analyzed journalistic articles and scientific research that address the increase in diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit with Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
