In 2018 the Connecticut General Assembly passed legislation granting statutory authority to the Department of Public Health to convene a muliti-disciplinary Connecticut Maternal Mortality Review Committee in order to not only review pregnancy-associated deaths but also to develop recommendations for action. The first meeting was convened in September 2018 and the first cases were reviewed under statutory protection in December 2018. The committee has 28 members, meets monthly and reviews all pregnancy-associated deaths, defined as those deaths that occurred within one year of the end of a pregnancy, regardless of the outcome. The most recent year completed were 2020 deaths and data are still being analyzed. In the most recent CT MMR Evaluation Report of 2015-2019 cases, of the 62 pregnancy-associated deaths 25 (40%) were found to be pregnancy-related. Our mission is to review all pregnancy-associated deaths, identify those that are pregnancy-related and develop recommendations to reduce subsequent risk.
