Racial and ethnic disparities in death associated with severe maternal morbidity in the United States: Failure to rescue
Obstetrics and Gynecology May 03, 2021
Guglielminotti J, Wong CA, Friedman AM, et al. - Using administrative data, researchers conducted this retrospective cohort study to examine racial and ethnic disparities in failure to rescue (ie, death) associated with severe maternal morbidity and to describe temporal trends. Non-Hispanic White (reference), non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic, other, and missing were the race and ethnicity categories. There were 73,934,559 delivery hospitalizations reported during the study period, including 993,864 with severe maternal morbidity. Despite progress, failure to rescue from severe maternal morbidity remains a major contributor to excess maternal mortality in racial and ethnic minority women.
