Question

The chart above measures the maternal mortality rate (MMR) for different regions. The bar circled in red represents industrialized nations. What are some possible explanations for the low MMR of industrialized nations?​

Answer 1

Maternal mortality refers to all deaths that are caused as a result of complications during childbirth and/or pregnancy.

There are factors that limit complications during childbirth and pregnancy, such as the availability of latest technology, availability of adequate routine prenatal care, availability of wrll-trained and specialized health-care worker, and exposure of the mother to education on safety and precautions to be taken during pregnancy and childbirth, etc.

However, all these factors are mainly available in well developed and industrialized countries. Hence the reason the chart shows that industrialized countries have low maternal mortality rate.Explanation:
