Abstract

In 2005, the US pregnancy-related mortality ratio (PRMR) was 15.1 per 100,000 live births. African American women had a PRMR greater than three times that of Caucasians. To assess how Ohio compares nationally, and evaluate the effect of the implementation of the 2003 US Standard Death Certificate, data from 2003-2008 were examined for patterns of pregnancy-associated death in Ohio.
