| مستخلص: | Maternal and/or perinatal death review or audits aim to improve the quality of health services and reduce deaths due to causes identified. A death review audit cycle identifies causes of deaths and possible modifiable factors, these can point to potential breaks in the continuity of health care and other health systems faults and challenges. It is an important function of audit cycles to develop, implement, monitor, and review action plans to improve the service. The WHO has produced two handbooks (Making Every Baby Count and Monitoring Emergency Obstetric Care) to guide maternal and perinatal death reviews. Health worker related factors accounts for two thirds of aspects that, if done differently may have prevented the adverse outcome. This emphasises the need for skilled health care workers at every delivery and for deliveries to take place in health facilities.
