The forecasted data indicates a consistent decline in China's maternal mortality ratio from 22.0 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2024 to 18.0 in 2028. This downward trend suggests a year-on-year improvement of approximately 4.76%, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting an average annual decrease of about 5.10% over these years. In 2023, the maternal mortality ratio was higher than the projected figures for the forecast period, indicating ongoing progress in maternal health interventions.
Future trends to watch for include the effects of healthcare reforms, increased access to prenatal care, and technological advancements in maternal health on these mortality figures. Monitoring socioeconomic factors and healthcare policies will be crucial to sustain and accelerate the reduction in maternal mortality rates.
