The Philippine Situation
Maternal mortality ratio: number of women who die
during pregnancy and childbirth, per 100,000 live
births.
MMR is considerably high at 162/100,000 LB (2006)
MDG target reduction: 75% (121/100,000 LB) * 2017
years (change of 2.42 %)
MMR 2016: 124/100,000 LB
Current situation
current level of maternal mortality in the Philippines
is mostly attributed to the predominance of home
births (61%)* and the relatively high proportion
(37%) of these births assisted by traditional birth
attendants (TBAs) or “hilots”
