The Philadelphia MMRC’s current report is based on aggregated data from 110 deaths that occurred between 2013 and 2018. The aim of this report is to describe the current state of maternal mortality in Philadelphia and to highlight the Philadelphia MMRC’s recommendations to reduce it. In this report, maternal mortality will be referred to as either “pregnancy-associated” or “pregnancy-related” deaths. Pregnancy-associated deaths are any deaths that occur during or within one year of the end of a pregnancy. Pregnancy-related deaths are a subset of those deaths which are caused by, related to, or aggravated by the pregnancy or its management. Consistent with how the cases self-identified, this report refers to the population studied as “pregnant and postpartum women.”
