Nigeria 2nd in global maternal deaths

En esto s 5 años que hemos vivido en Lagos hemos sabido de al menos unas 20 muertes o de las madres o de sus hijos en el parto. Es increible la falta de equipos y de malos profesionales medicos. Esto no solo ocurre en los estratos bajos tambien hemos sabido de uno de los mejores doctores en Lagos (Lekki) que casi mató a una guagua por tratar de sacarla con "aspiradora" utilizandola mas de 20 veces ya que la guagua no salia.... es por esto que Nigeria se encuentra en el 2 lugar en el mundo de muertes de la madre al dar a luz

 

Nigeria 2nd in global maternal deaths

A Non Governmental Organisation, NGO, Save the Children, has revealed that Nigeria records the second highest number of maternal deaths in the world with number of pre-term births recorded at 773,600.

The Country Director of the group, Susan Grant, who disclosed this weekend in Abuja, during the unveiling of Mother’s Day and Born Too Soon report, stated that Nigeria recorded an alarming death rate of 144 women in a day, 10 deaths per minute, due to conditions related to childbirth and had the greatest numbers of pre-term births in the world due to population.

She attributed this situation to early childbirth, inaccessibility to healthcare, weak breastfeeding by mothers and early births of children (pre-term) - (Punch)
