1/ Public image of maternal death is a woman who, in dramatic moments immediately surrounding birth, suffers terrible tragedy

latest @CDCgov data tells different story...rather than waiting to publish academic paper, decided to share analysis right away

2/ first of all, > 80% maternal death does not occur on the day of delivery... >60% does not even occur within a week of delivery

The great majority of these deaths are at home or in the community...NOT in the hospital

ok, can of worms...

no quarrel with any of the ideas in this publication

BIG concern with decision to formulate the consensus statement as a "bundle" rather than committee opinion, a KEY difference that risks compromising rather than bolstering improvement efforts --> THREAD 1/ among American hospitals working to improve care, it's common to see good ideas get embedded into bad tools
