The Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Denmark has demonstrated a stable trend from 2013 to 2021, maintaining a value of 5.0 deaths per 100,000 live births for nearly the entire period, except for a brief increase to 6.0 in 2015. In 2022, the value declined to 4.0 where it continued to hold steady through 2024. The year-on-year variation between 2021 and 2023 is 0%, while the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the last five years, ending in 2023, is -4.36%. Looking forward, the forecast suggests a declining trend with the MMR expected to reach 3.0 by 2028, marking a forecasted 5-year growth rate of -25% and a forecasted 5-year CAGR of -5.59%.
Future trends to watch for include the continued potential reduction in maternal mortality rates, possibly driven by improvements in healthcare technology, policy interventions, and broader access to quality prenatal and maternal healthcare services. Monitoring these factors can provide insights into whether the current forecasts will hold or if adjustments will be necessary.
