Maternal Deaths in Australia, 1964-2020. A Review.
Background: The overall number of maternal deaths in Australia has significantly declined over the last six decades. However, there has not been a decline in certain types of maternal deaths.
Aims: The aim is to highlight the types of maternal death where the decline has not occurred.
Materials and methods: Data was analysed from the 19 Australian maternal mortality reports that covered the years 1964-2020. Further information was obtained from searches in the medical literature on the Australian experience of maternal mortality.
Results and conclusions: The previous 'traditional' causes of maternal death-haemorrhage, hypertension, pulmonary emboli and sepsis-are very much reduced. However, deaths following psychiatric and medical causes persist, often beyond the standard postnatal definition of 42 days.
