Women's education level, contraceptive use and maternal mortality estimates

As part of the Millennium Development Goals proposed by the United Nations, research on maternal mortality estimates and the determinants that positively influence maternal health outcomes is key for adequate evidence-based public health interventions. In the case of maternal death statistics, accur...

description As part of the Millennium Development Goals proposed by the United Nations, research on maternal mortality estimates and the determinants that positively influence maternal health outcomes is key for adequate evidence-based public health interventions. In the case of maternal death statistics, accuracy of estimating methods strongly depends on the quality of official records[1] and, when unavailable, on the variables used in the predictive model, e.g. total fertility rate (TFR), percentage of childbirth delivery by skilled attendants, women's education level, and per capita income, among others. Thus, a thorough evaluation of the reliability of estimated maternal mortality statistics is warranted before drawing any causal inference.
