Maternal and Infant Health Outcomes in US-Born and Non–US-Born Black Pregnant People in the US
In this cross-sectional study, significant differences were observed in odds of maternal morbidity and birth outcomes by maternal birthplace within the Black pregnant population in the US. This suggests the need for increased assessment of nativity in Black maternal health research and specific strategies to reduce morbidity for non-US-born populations.
