  1. a Maternal Newborn Health Registry 2010–2018 deliveries, excluding women lost to follow-up prior to delivery or missing maternal status at 42 days
  2. b Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) is maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. The 95% confidence interval for the MMR is approximated using the variance of the proportion of maternal deaths for each site and year
