- The Center for Disease Control and Prevention ensured most pregnancy-related deaths could have been prevented. Additionally, they suggested level of education has nothing to do will number of deaths, therefore it is a nationwide problem. This source gave me two argument ideas that hospitals should undergo when handling ALL women in labor; implement standardized protocols quality improvement initiatives, especially among facilities that serve disproportionately affected communities and identify/address implicit bias in healthcare that would likely provide improvement in patient-provider interaction.
