Abstract

The National Committee on Confidential Enquiries into Maternal Deaths (NCCEMD) has assessed maternal deaths in South Africa since 1997. Reports have been produced since 1999, culminating in the latest triennial report (2008-2010). The anaesthetic chapter from this report is published in SAJAA to improve dissemination of the information.
