Abstract:Objective To analyze the changing trends and influencing factors of maternal mortalities in Xinjiang region from 2007 to 2018, and to provide scientific evidence for further decrease of the maternal mortality. Methods We described the maternal mortalities, major causes of deaths and status of maternal healthcare services in Xinjiang region from 2007 to 2018. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the association between the maternal mortalities and the indictors of maternal healthcare services. Partial least squares regression was used to analyze factors affecting the maternal mortalities. Results The maternal mortalities decreased from 73.7/100,000 in 2007 to 26.8/100,000 in 2018 in Xinjiang region, with the average annual reduction rate of 8.78%. The indicators of maternal healthcare services showed an upward trend year by year (P<0.01). The maternal mortalities were negatively correlated with the indicators of maternal healthcare services, and the top three indicators were the hospital delivery rate (r=-0.945, P<0.001), the antenatal examination rate (r=-0.933, P<0.001) and the postpartum visit rate (r=-0.901, P<0.001). The most influential factor of the maternal mortalities was the hospital delivery rate, followed by the antenatal examination rate. Conclusion The maternal mortalities in Xinjiang region in 2007-2018 displayed a decreasing trend, but still remained at a higher level. It is necessary to improve the systematic management quality of obstetric services, strengthen the early warning and grading management of high-risk pregnancy, improve the technical level of grass-roots medical staff and enhance the workconcerning maternal antenatal examination and hospital delivery so as to further decrease the maternal mortality in Xinjiang region.
