While in Jambi Province in 2017 recorded maternal deaths were 29 cases. Maternal deaths that occur during 90% of pregnancy are caused by obstetric complications. Direct obstetric complications are bleeding, infection and eclampsia. Indirectly maternal mortality is also influenced by delays at the family level in recognizing danger signs of pregnancy and making decisions to immediately seek help. Delay in reaching health facilities and assistance in health service facilities.

In East Java, the maternal mortality rate in 2018 was 515 per year or 1 to 2 people per day. The cause of the high maternal mortality rate of 20.3% is due to postpartum haemorrhage. The purpose of this study was to analysis the factors that influence pregnant women to perform perineal massage. The total population was 120 pregnant women with a sample of 92 pregnant women in April-July 2019, the sampling technique used simple random sampling. The data analysis used multiple logistic regression statistical tests while the significance test used a 0.05 degree of error. The results of this study were the age factor with a low risk of affecting pregnant women, the p-value was 0.003 (<0.05). Knowledge and motivation factors have an effect together.

BACKGROUND Maternal death or maternal mortality is defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as the “death of a women while pregnant or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy, irrespective of the duration and site of pregnancy, from any cause related to or aggravated by the pregnancy or its management but not from accidental or incidental causes.” AIMS AND OBJECTIVES 1. To study the causes of maternal mortality, 2. To identify the deficits to decrease the current rate of maternal mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study done by analyzing hospital records of maternal mortality occurring in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology of a tertiary care hospital of Bihar from January 2019 to December 2019. RESULTS A total of 126 deaths occurred in this period of 1 year. The total number of live births was 5568 in this year making the maternal mortality rate (MMR) to be 2262.93. This may be due to the fact that being a referral institute most of the cases were referred from the peripheries. 76.19% of the women were referred from outside. The most common age group to be affected was 20 to 29 years (79.36%). Multiparous women were more affected than primiparous women (61.9% V/s 38.10%). The most common cause of maternal mortality was eclampsia seen in 26.98% cases followed by PPH seen in 22.22% cases, anemia in 8.73%, medical complications in 7.94% cases , APH in 7.14% cases , rupture uterus in 7.14% cases. The most common type of delay was type 1 and 2. More number of women were from rural areas. More number of women were illiterates. Most of the women had no ANC. CONCLUSION Illiteracy, poverty, lack of knowledge, delayed referrals, lack of ANC are major contributing factors causing such high maternal mortality rate. Health education, strengthening of peripheral health care and availability of trained health workers and essential drugs should be enforced.
