INTERNATIONAL APPROACHES TO THE ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS OF MATERNAL MORTALITY DURING COVID-19

Description

This article examines international approaches to the assessment and analysis of maternal mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study analyzes the clinical course of COVID-19 in pregnant women, major risk factors associated with maternal mortality, and the effectiveness of modern surveillance systems. Based on epidemiological monitoring, clinical audits, and international maternal mortality review programs, the primary causes of maternal deaths were identified. The findings indicate that severe respiratory failure, thromboembolic complications, preeclampsia, and pre-existing comorbidities significantly increase the risk of maternal mortality. Furthermore, COVID-19 vaccination, early diagnosis, continuous prenatal monitoring, and timely intensive care interventions were found to be effective measures for reducing maternal deaths. International experience demonstrates that advanced epidemiological surveillance systems and improved maternal healthcare services play a crucial role in protecting maternal health during public health emergencies. The implementation of evidence-based strategies can substantially improve maternal outcomes and reduce preventable maternal mortality worldwide
