In a large, multicenter study of women who received care during their first trimester, perinatal mortality occurred in 10. This year they have thrown down the gauntlet to midwives on a number of occasions, with public statements variously claiming midwifery-led care was unsafe, that births should only occur within close proximity to a tertiary hospital, and that perinatal mortality rates in birthing units exceed that of hospital births. If these scenarios were implemented, the MDG for maternal health would not be reached in every country, but globally the reduction of maternal and perinatal mortality would be well on the way. |
