Dear all,

Could you please tell me why there is very few maternal mortality rate in the statcompiler? Do know any other source that I could fine maternal mortality rate from 1990 to present.

Thank you!

Dear Hoyohoyo,

Starting in late 2015, The DHS Program began making changes to the maternal mortality questionnaire and terminology. What was previously called maternal mortality is now called pregnancy-related mortality. If you select pregnancy-related mortality in STATcompiler you will find data for many more countries. We developed a video series that explains these changes. You can find it on our YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPT2usn0v-o&index=2& list=PLagqLv-gqpTO6YQasXjBnRvPGJpB6jePf

Thanks,
Sarah-DHS
