The lifetime risk of maternal death is in a range between 1 in 6 and 1 in 9. This translates into an estimated 26,000 women dying from pregnancy related causes per year or in stated another way, 1 woman dying every 27 minutes. Between 48% and 55% of deaths among reproductive age women (15-49 years) are from pregnancy related causes.
