1 Skilled Attendant at Delivery MICS3 Data Analysis and Report Writing

2 Background Three-quarters of all maternal deaths occur during delivery and the immediate postpartum period. Traditional birth attendants, whether trained or untrained, can neither predict nor cope with serious obstetric complications. The single most critical intervention for safe motherhood is thus to ensure that a competent health worker with midwifery skills is present at every birth, and transport is available to a referral facility for obstetric care in case of emergency.

3 International Goals & Targets Ensure that women have ready and affordable access to skilled attendance at delivery Proportion of births attended by skilled health personnel (MDG 5, Indicator 17)
