Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Both statements are true.
  


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Both statements are true.

Statement 1 accurately defines maternal mortality as the death of a woman during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy. This is a widely accepted definition used by organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations.

Statement 2 correctly identifies the lack of access to proper healthcare facilities and skilled medical professionals as a major factor contributing to high maternal mortality rates. Inadequate access to quality prenatal care, skilled birth attendants, emergency obstetric services, and postnatal care can increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth, leading to maternal deaths.
