Abstract

The article presents a comparative analysis of the dynamics of maternal mortality (MM) and its structure in the Russian Federation and the Chechen Republic for the period 2010–2017. In the Russian Federation for the period 2010–2017, there was a persistent decrease in maternal mortality by 6.7 %. While in 2010, the maternal mortality rate in the RF was 16.5 %, the indicator in 2017 was 9.8 %. It turned out that the maternal mortality rate in the Chechen Republic for the period from 2010 to 2017 tends to decrease by 32.6 %, but this indicator exceeds the average statistical indicator of maternal mortality in the RF (6.7 %). In the structure of MM since 2010 in the Russian Federation, the leading causes of maternal mortality are: complications of pregnancy against the background of severe extragenital pathology, bleeding, gestosis, amniotic fluid embolism. The leading cause of maternal mortality in the Chechen Republic is bleeding, apparently, this is due to: untimely access of pregnant women for medical care, doctors ignoring the clinical recommendations of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, insufficient technical equipment of medical institutions of I and II levels, ineffective interaction among doctors of antenatal clinics and doctors of obstetric hospitals of I, II and III levels, lack of operational skills among doctors of obstetric hospitals. In second place are complications of severe extragenital pathology. Apparently, one of the reasons for the increase in maternal mortality in the republic is the low health index of women of childbearing age, which leads to an increase in the number of pregnancies and childbirth occurring against the background of severe extragenital pathology.
