The MBRRACE-UK collaboration, co-led by Oxford Population Health's National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit, has today published the full Saving Lives, Improving Mothers' Care report on women who died during or up to a year after pregnancy between 2020 and 2022.
This report follows the data brief that was published in January 2024 that showed the maternal death rate in the UK to be at its highest level for almost 20 years. It examines the care received by the women who died in more detail and suggests strategies and interventions to prevent future deaths.
