This is one of the most important reports published during the unbroken, nearly 60-year history of the Confidential Enquiries into Maternal Deaths. It shows for the first time in many years, a small but very welcome decline in the overall maternal mortality as well as larger reductions in deaths from some clinical causes. It is difficult to ignore the apparent relationship between the significant decline in deaths from pulmonary embolism, and to a lesser degree from other causes except from sepsis, and the publication and implementation of clinical guidelines which have been recommended in previous Enquiry reports.
This report is recommended to all health-service commissioners and professionals as well as to those with a general interest in pregnancy and birth. Learning and acting on the important messages contained within each chapter will lead to continuing improvements in the prevention and management of life-threatening complications of pregnancy.
Please note that this edition has been published as a supplement to the March edition of BJOG. Subscribers to BJOG can access a free online version here but will not receive a printed copy of this report.
