Module III
Maternal Health _______________________________________________
Introduction
In the Module we will explore maternal health paying particular attention to global disparities in the support and care mothers around the world get, the factors that promote such disparities, causes of maternal mortality and morbidity, the impact of reproductive patterns on the health of children, and mechanisms to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality, particularly in low-and –middle income countries.
At the end of this Module you should be able to articulate the following:
Critical Skills
1. Explain the global trends in maternal health.
2. Identify the key players and they play in promoting maternal health.
3. Be able to identify the causes of maternal mortality and morbidity in the U.S and other countries, particularly developing nations.
4. Explain mechanisms used to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality.
5. Be familiar with at least two development organizations/NGOs and their work around maternal health.
Maternal Health at a Glance
Maternal health refers to the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period. While most women look forward to motherhood (and their spouses to fatherhood), for too many women, motherhood is a torturous experience associated with suffering, ill-health and even death. It is estimated that about 800 women die from pregnancy- or childbirth-related complications around the world every day. Consider the following few facts about maternal health (WHO):
· Every day, approximately 800 women die from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth – about 287 000 women in 2010 alone. Most of them died due to preventable cause like not being able to access skilled routine and emergency care.
· The FOUR main maternal mortality causes are: severe bleeding, infections, unsafe abortion, and hypertensive disorders (pre-eclampsia and eclampsia). After delivery bleeding is very serious condition, if unattended, it can kill even a healthy woman within two hours.
· Of the more than 136 million women who give birth a year, about 20 million of them experience pregnancy-related illness after childbirth.
· About 16 million girls aged between 15 and 19 give birth each year, accounting for more than 10% of all births. Complications from pregnancy and childbirth are the leading cause of death among girls 15-19 in developing nations.
· The state of maternal health mirrors the gap between the rich and the poor. Less than 1% of maternal deaths occur in high-income countries. The lifetime risk of dying from complications in childbirth or pregnancy for a woman in the developing world is an average of one in 150 compared to one in 3800 in developed countries. Of the 800 women who die every day,440 live in sub-Saharan Africa, 230 in Southern Asia and five in high-income countries.
· Most maternal deaths can be prevented through skilled care at childbirth and access to emergency obstetric c ...
On 1 January 2016, the world officially began implementation
of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development—the
transformative plan of action based on 17 Sustainable
Development Goals—to address urgent global challenges
over the next 15 years.
This agenda is a road map for people and the planet that will
build on the success of the Millennium Development Goals
and ensure sustainable social and economic progress worldwide.
It seeks not only to eradicate extreme poverty, but also
to integrate and balance the three dimensions of sustainable
development—economic, social and environmental—in a
comprehensive global vision.

On 1 January 2016, the world officially began implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development—the transformative plan of action based on 17 Sustainable Development Goals—to address urgent global challenges over the next 15 years.
This agenda is a road map for people and the planet that will build on the success of the Millennium Development Goals and ensure sustainable social and economic progress worldwide. It seeks not only to eradicate extreme poverty, but also to integrate and balance the three dimensions of sustainable development—economic, social and environmental—in a comprehensive global vision.
It is vital that we begin implementation with a sense of opportunity and purpose based on an accurate evaluation of where the world stands now.
That is the aim of this report. It presents an overview of the 17 Goals using data currently available to highlight the most significant gaps and challenges.
The latest data show that about one in eight people still lived in extreme poverty, nearly 800 million people suffered from hunger, the births of nearly a quarter of children under 5 had not been recorded, 1.1 billion people were living without electricity, and water scarcity affected more than 2 billion people.
These statistics show how important coordinated global data-generation efforts will be in supplying reliable and timely data for systematic follow-up and progress reviews.
The Goals apply to all societies. Even the wealthiest countries have yet to fully empower women or eliminate discrimination.All nations will need to build the Sustainable Development Goals into their national policies and plans if we are to achieve them.
This first report is a starting point. With collective global action, we can seize the opportunities before us and, together,fulfill the pledge of the 2030 Agenda to leave no one behind.

Secretary-General, United Nations "The new agenda is a promise by leaders to all people everywhere. It is a universal, integrated and transformative vision for a better world. It is an agenda for people, to end poverty in all its forms. An agenda for the planet, our common home. An agenda for shared prosperity, peace and partnership. It conveys the urgency of climate action. It is rooted in gender equality and respect for the rights of all. Above all, it pledges to leave no one behind."

Tremendo editorial de The lancet: UN MANIFIESTO PARA EL MUNDO QUE QUEREMOS. La fecha propuesta para el cumplimiento de los Objetivos del Milenio (ODM) es el 31 de diciembre de 2015. Dichos objetivos estaban enfocados, principalmente, en combatir la pobreza y disminuir las inequidades. Es decir, se concentraban en algunos, no en todos los seres humanos. ¿Qué pasa a partir del 1 de enero de 2016? ¿Hacia donde debemos enfocar nuestra visión del mundo desde este momento, para lograr es "mundo que queremos"? El manifiesto se enfoca a la interrelación que existe entre TODOS los seres humanos, y en la necesidad de que todos participen, haciendo énfasis obviamente, en aquellos aspectos que requieren más atención. Existe un consenso, diríamos que universal, con relación a que hay muchas cosas que tenemos que cambiar. Pero la pregunta que me hago es: ¿Seremos capaces de construir acuerdos que permitan ir rellenando esos abismos que nos separan, para lograr la equidad, con JUSTICIA? Tengo fe en Dios, y confío en que podemos lograrlo.

Os cuidados de saúde prestados durante a gravidez salvaguardam o bem-estar da mãe e do feto e proporcionam um bom começo de vida aos bebês. Os custos financeiros de ter um bebê podem ser catastróficos, impedindo as mulheres grávidas de procurar serviços essenciais de saúde materna e colocando em risco a vida das mães e de seus filhos.
De acordo com a análise recentemente divulgada, estima-se que 5 milhões de famílias vivendo na África, Ásia, América Latina e Caribe incorrerão em grandes dificuldades financeiras a cada ano - ou gastos catastróficos em saúde - devido a ausência de cuidados pré-natal e parto. Os gastos com saúde são considerados grandes se excederem 40% dos gastos não essenciais, não alimentares, de um domicílio. Quase dois terços dessas famílias, ou cerca de 3 milhões de famílias, estão na Ásia.
O documento aborda ainda, a epidemia de cesáreas, o casamento infantil, a gravidez na adolescência...
Obrigado e parabéns ao Unicef!

As population around the world continue to grow
and health care becomes more widely available,
people are living longer than before.
The percentage of the global population that is 65
or older will double from 10% to 20% by 2050
However, living longer doesn’t mean they will
continuously live healthier. Many will suffer chronic
diseases and memory loss issues.
15. favoriot
Healthcare costs keep on increasing. Costly time and
money due to frequent visitations. Hospitals and elderly
care centers unable to cope with the number of elderly
people.
Thus, the trend is now about “Aging in Place” where
elderly will live at home either with family members or
alone.
How do we ensure the elderly people live
alone with a healthy life, safe and secure
but with constant supervision?
How do we let them “Live Alone But Not
Left Alone”?

Aging Population Issues
E.g. China - 64 elderly
for every 100 workers by

4 : 2 : 1 Problem
