Growth Factors and Top Challenges
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) had reported that in 2013, close to 289,000 women had died due to childbirth related causes or pregnancy issues. The causes can range from extreme bleeding to obstructed labor, all with effective interventions. While the data experts have noted a decline in the global mortality rates, there is an urgent need for more efforts to bring positive changes in the market. High mortality rates are still prevalent in the impoverished countries, with more than 85% in Africa and Southern Asia. Thus, various government organizations are constantly making efforts to increase access to quality maternal health services.
Other than this, considerable stress is being given to mitigating social determinants of maternal health, such as elevating literacy rate in female population which would serve to benefit the market to a large extent. Additionally, increasing engagement between public and private health care providers is bringing lucrative transformation to the maternal health market. For instance, campaigns such as the Pradhan Mantri Surakshit Matritva Abhiyan have had a deep impact on the maternal health market in India, allowing women to get access to obstetric gynecologists, antenatal check-ups, in addition to tracking high-risk pregnancies.
Various commercial companies now offer a variety of maternal health services and products that cater to every consumer demand. It is a fact that the regular use of maternal health care services helps bring down the maternal morbidity and mortality rate. For instance, Johnson and Johnson is taking proactive steps along with Millennium Development Goals (MDG) to curb the challenges associated with maternal health. The primary aim is to decrease the mortality rate, helping as many women as possible in the next five years.
