> Maternal survival series
> Making sure women throughout the world can give birth in a health facility,
in the presence of a midwife, is the best strategy for substantially reducing
maternal mortality worldwide, according to a landmark series of papers. The
authors are calling on governments and donors to prioritise this strategy over
alternatives, such as home births with a relative, traditional birth attendant,
community health worker or midwife, to save the lives of over half a million
women who die in pregnancy or childbirth each year.
>
> The five papers that form the The Lancet maternal survival series present
the evidence for adopting the health centre strategy worldwide and detail the
action required for its roll-out, including immediate priorities for
governments and donors. The authors warn that without political
commitment and investment into this approach, substantial declines in
maternal mortality are unlikely in the next 10-20 years, and the fifth
Millennium Development Goal-to reduce maternal mortality by 75% by 2015-
will not be met. Maternal survival is closely linked to newborn and child
survival, which is the fourth MDG. The Lancet most recently covered this in a
child survival special issue. :
