| Description | Severe maternal morbidity associated with catastrophic costs &/or a dead baby have long term consequences for women and their babies, particularly with respect to their social and economic well being. |
| Exploitation Route | This is one of the very first studies to document the long term impact of severe maternal morbidity and associated catastrophic costs on women's lives in the world. Some of our tools have been used by others (see papers by Bouchra Assarag for example) Maternity services need to strengthen primary care services and their linkages with social services where availalbe, to support women with near-miss complications, catastrophic costs, abortion and perinatal deaths |
