This decline in maternal mortality rate follows a steady downward trend in China. In 2005, Chinese maternal mortality rate was 4,480 deaths per 100,000 births. Since then, the rate has decreased by over 20%. This is due to the implementation of better healthcare and nutrition practices in the country. Despite the decline, maternal mortality rate in China still remains one of the highest in the world. To further reduce this rate, China needs to focus on providing better access to quality healthcare and nutrition services to those in need. It will also require increased investment in health research and development.
