Abstract

The maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for each population is an indicator of medical and surgical quality control. The World Health Organization has committed to decreasing maternal mortality worldwide. Access to care remains an important facet of improving overall health of populations. Quality control and excellent communications among health care providers is equally important. Standardization of obstetric emergency protocols will further decrease maternal mortality.
