In 2023, the maternal mortality rate in China stood at 13.5 per hundred thousand. Forecasted data indicates a continuous decrease in maternal mortality, dropping from 12.8 in 2024 to 9.2 in 2028. This reflects a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) indicating a promising improvement in healthcare and maternal services. Notably, the year-on-year reduction appears consistent and progressive.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in medical technology, enhanced maternal healthcare policies, and potentially more robust rural healthcare strategies. Monitoring these areas could provide insights into whether the observed positive trend continues, potentially aiming for single-digit rates earlier than expected.
