Severe maternal outcomes in 36 West African hospitals from Benin, Burkina Faso and Niger
At the time of our study the burden of severe maternal outcomes was high in Benin, Burkina Faso and Niger. We found that most women had a near miss complication on admission to a participating hospital, indicating the need to facilitate access to obstetric care for women with high risk pregnancies and complications.
