在美国，产妇死亡率和严重发病率正在上升。这些事件中有很大一部分是可以预防的。由卫生资源和服务管理局妇幼保健局协调的产妇保健倡议正在加紧努力，以降低美国的产妇死亡率和严重发病率。通过公私伙伴关系，产妇保健倡议正在采取综合办法，以改善产妇保健，重点放在五个优先领域：改善妇女怀孕前、怀孕期间和怀孕后的健康;提高产妇护理的质量和安全;改善产妇护理系统，包括临床和公共卫生系统;提高公众认识和教育;以及改善监测和研究。
Maternal mortality and severe morbidity are on the rise in the United States. A significant proportion of these events are preventable. The Maternal Health Initiative (MHI), coordinated by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau at the Health Resources and Services Administration, is intensifying efforts to reduce maternal mortality and severe morbidity in the U.S. Through a public-private partnership, MHI is taking a comprehensive approach to improving maternal health focusing on five priority areas: improving women's health before, during and beyond pregnancy; improving the quality and safety of maternity care; improving systems of maternity care including both clinical and public health systems; improving public awareness and education; and improving surveillance and research.
