Research has suggested trends of worsening maternal health associated with depression, substance use, and severe maternal morbidity in the U.S. over the past decade. All-cause and drug/alcohol poisoning mortality rates for pregnant and recently pregnant women also increased from 2015-2019. In this study, researchers examined all-cause and cause-specific mortality rates among pregnant and recently pregnant women from 2019 to 2020 and compared mortality rates by race and ethnicity.
