    Maternal Mortality in 2000-2017: Ozambique

    Uploaded by

    Fabio Amaro Amaro
    Maternal mortality in Mozambique declined significantly from 2000 to 2017. The maternal mortality ratio decreased from 798 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2000 to 289 in 2017. Over this period, the annual rate of reduction in maternal mortality was estimated to be 6.0%. Key factors like increased skilled birth attendance and economic development helped contribute to the decline in maternal deaths. However, maternal mortality remains a public health challenge in Mozambique.

    c The uncertainty intervals (UI) for all estimates refer to the 80% uncertainty intervals (10th and 90th percentiles of the posterior distributions).

    This was chosen as opposed to the more standard 95% intervals because of the substantial uncertainty inherent in maternal mortality outcomes.
    * Figures presented in the table are estimates based on national data, such as surveys or administrative records, or other sources, produced by the international

    agency when country data for some year(s) is not available, when multiple sources exist, or when there are data quality issues.
