Background: Considering the importance of the key role of mothers in the family and their significant impact on the health of the family and children and the prevention of maternal mortality, we designed a study to determine the analysis of maternal mortality in the last ten years in North Khorasan province.
Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study that examined all the deaths of pregnant mothers in North Khorasan from 2013 to 2023. In this study, the researcher referred to the health centers and teaching hospitals of the province, examined the health records and hospital records of all deceased mothers, and the cause of death checklist was completed. Data analysis was done in descriptive analysis.
Findings: The findings showed that in the last 10 years, 48 cases of maternal death have been recorded in North Khorasan province. The maternal death index in North Khorasan province had a downward trend from 2012 to 2015, then an upward trend from 2016 to 2018, and with the COVID epidemic in 2019, it reached its maximum, i.e., 64 per hundred thousand live births. After that, it had a decreasing trend until 2023. The most common cause of maternal death is blood pressure disorders during pregnancy, delivery, and after delivery and in second place is obstetric bleeding.
Conclusion: Maternal mortality increased in North Khorasan province with the COVID epidemic, excluding COVID-19 blood pressure disorders was the most common cause of maternal death in North Khorasan province. Considering the high level of pregnancy blood pressure in North Khorasan province, better management of blood pressure and pre-eclampsia in pregnancy can help in reducing maternal mortality.
