Factors and Determinants Influencing Maternal Mortality in Rural Uganda

Factors and Determinants Influencing Maternal Mortality in Rural Uganda and Prospects for Sustainability: A Literature Review

Uganda faces one of the highest maternal mortality rates worldwide as a result of multiple factors and determinants.  This review consolidated some of the factors and determinants driving these high mortality rates to contribute towards alleviating the situation. The review found that maternal mortality rates are particularly elevated in rural areas due to insufficient government policies that control the socio-economic variables on which expectant mothers depend to access healthcare. Based on the review, the paper proposes interventions to help reduce rural maternal mortality rates, underscoring the importance of governmental policy reforms and behavioral change among pregnant women as part of this process.

Based on the review, the paper proposes interventions to help reduce rural maternal mortality rates, underscoring the importance of governmental policy reforms and behavioral change among pregnant women as part of this process. Implementing the interventions will likely lower mortality rates in rural Uganda. However, this would only be possible through the collaborative effort of multiple stakeholders to enhance maternal healthcare outcomes.
