Saving Mothers and Babies: Assessing and Reducing Mortality Rates in Your Hospital

Saving Mothers and Babies was developed in response to the high maternal and perinatal mortality rates found in most developing countries. Learning material used in this book is based on the results of the annual confidential enquiries into maternal deaths and the Saving Mothers and Saving Babies reports published in South Africa.

It addresses:

the basic principles of mortality audit

maternal mortality

perinatal mortality

managing maternal and perinatal mortality audits

ways of reducing maternal and perinatal mortality rates

This book should be used together with the Perinatal Problem Identification Programme (PPIP).

"A very valuable tool for sites wanting to start with audits or to introduce new members of staff to maternal and perinatal audits."
