Abstract

Obstetric sepsis is a leading cause of preventable maternal morbidity and mortality. Pregnant and postpartum patients in rural settings experience disproportionate rates of sepsis and other forms of severe maternal morbidity. Although there have been recent advances in addressing preventable morbidity and mortality from sepsis in the general adult population, combating excess rates of sepsis in the obstetric population, particularly among rural patients, will require targeted clinical and policy interventions.
