Implementation status of maternal death surveillance and response system in Ethiopia: Evidence from a national-level system evaluation
Despite the noticeable regional variation, the overall system readiness and status to implement MDSR were suboptimal, characterized by low representativeness, completeness, and community engagement. Efforts should be directed toward improving community surveillance and enhancing all components of the system to address regional variations and improve overall performance through triangulation and integration with various data sources.
