However, maternal mortality ratios are complex indicators with estimation requiring both the accurate identification of cause of death and large sample sizes.1-2 The sisterhood method of maternal mortality data collection and analysis provides a validated framework for estimating maternal mortality ratios in situations of limited infrastructure.2-3 The sisterhood method embedded in Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) produce maternal mortality ratios for at least 28 countries, comprising 16% of global births.3 With better estimates of maternal mortality at the http://www.library.pitt.edu/ http://www.pitt.edu/ http://www.library.pitt.edu/articles/digpubtype/index.html http://www.upress.pitt.edu/upressIndex.aspx CENTRAL ASIAN JOURNAL OF GLOBAL HEALTH This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 United States License.	cache/cajgh-341.pdf	txt/cajgh-341.txt
