Maternal deaths in Australia 1997-1999

The 1997-99 report on maternal deaths in Australia is the twelfth in a series of triennial reports on maternal deaths dating back to 1964. Under-ascertainment of maternal mortality is of national concern. In an effort to improve ascertainment of maternal deaths, this report has used two data sources: states and territories confidential maternal death enquiries and Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) death data.
