Texas has highest pregnancy-related death rate in developed world, study says

Lawmakers in Texas largely failed to take any significant action to address the state's skyrocketing rate of pregnancy-related deaths just months after researchers found it to be the highest in not only the U.S., but the developed world.

Legislators introduced proposals to address the issue after a University of Maryland-led study found that the state's maternal mortality rate doubled between 2010 and 2012. But several key measures didn't even make it to a vote, falling victim to Republican infighting over other issues.

This is due to not expanding Medicaid and cuts in their PP. Aren't you so proud to be a Texan. I remember their Church shooting not long ago, hard to feel sorry for those Christians who vote for Republicans that take healthcare away from those in need. Disgusting.

How many women's charities and organizations have you donated your time and/or money to, Penelope?

The question is how many Republicans donate to women charities?

I find it so strange that you can somehow make these connections without providing any data to back your point.

First question: Why are people dying because of pregnancy ?

 

[MadChemist]

Everything the republican party does is to hurt, kill and to shame us as a nation.

These bastards really love the idea of us becoming a third world toilet.

Your behaviour would indicate you belong in one.

You run off at the mouth without thinking.

You are brainwashed.

I would suggest Cuba as a destination for you.

 

[MadChemist]

Its like they commit murder and abortions, they actually are killing pregnant women and their fetuses. Its unbelievable.

You voters are involved in this. Due to lack of healthcare.

You've provided nothing to make that connection.

 

[MadChemist]

The whole US is the highest in developed countries. I am sure its highest in Red that that have not expanded Medicaid.

America has a lot of blacks and Hispanics

But...that...that's....that's....racist.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

So you had no insurance before barry care?
That certainly sheds some light on your life choices.

Lots of people could not afford health ins before the ACA and even someone working full time for min wage didn't qualify for the ACA. Millions.

Hmmm..I've lived in Texas for 47 years and I've never met someone without insurance that just didnt want it.

As far as qualifying goes?
With the introduction of barry care a lot of small business owners stopped offering health care which of course left the employees with no other choice than the ridiculous cost of barry care.

Oh what a lame excuse. So they covered people before with health ins, I doubt it. No I do not believe it for one minute. They quit offering health ins. What a croc. of BS.

Yes they actually did,why pay for employee insurance when they could pass on the expense?

This of course only happened in low wage type jobs where the employee has no skills and can easily be replaced.

You fell hook line and sinker for Pub propaganda fake news.

So you're claiming the only people on barrycare are jobless?

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

It's is related to the third world invasion of America.
Don't worry, it will spread to the other states.
Texas is spending $Billions$ on free healthcare for the illegal aliens.
Illegal aliens wait until their 9th month to come across the border to drop their anchor babies.

First question: Why are people dying because of pregnancy ?

Going into pregnancy with poor health, and no ins for adults after giving birth. The are many risks during pregnancy, and Texas is a state that has not expanded Medicaid, so adults are not covered.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

As the Corrupt and Racist Democratic Party transforms America into a third world country we will have more and more third world country statistics.

You think Texas is run by Democrats?

Barry Obama is who caused the border stampede.
Democrats prefer illegal aliens over American citizens.

This will be even more interesting when the Blue States become 20% illegal alien too.

So in another words, you’ve done nothing as I expected. I guess it’s easier to sit around bitching on the Internet expecting everyone to foot the bill for you. How very typical and predictable of a thieving Marxist.

Your assertion remains unproven given that you've shown no connection.

No need to look at Venezuela. Under repub rule Texas has the highest pregnancy related death rate in the world NOW. Texas has some of the best hospitals and doctors in the world, so it's not a matter of not having the ability to reduce the rate, it's the lack of adequate health care for the poor. Repubs want to reduce access to health care even more.

First question: Why are people dying because of pregnancy ?

Why don't you read the OP and go to the CDC and investigate yourself. I do not have time to feed you a bottle.

Sean Blackwell, M.D., explained that the primary issue isn’t that medical care in Texas hospitals is worsening or below par, but rather that too many women are not receiving care.

“Every maternal death is a tragedy and we should strive for a case rate of zero,” said Blackwell, maternal-fetal medicine specialist at Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital and department chair for obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive sciences at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth. “But when you look at the data, and all of the improvements in safety and quality on labor and delivery units within Texas hospitals, it suggests that the potential increase in maternal deaths is not occurring at delivery or in the immediate postpartum period, but the time period from 42 to 365 days after birth—thus, outside the hospital. If anything, I would argue our hospitals are getting better. The major current opportunity for improvements is related to making sure women have access to care, especially our most vulnerable patients who are underserved and have chronic or severe medical conditions. We sorely need to have the system infrastructure and the ability to follow these women through that first year post delivery.”

For low-income women who qualify for Medicaid, benefits are available during pregnancy and up to only two months after birth, creating an abrupt end of care despite evidence that women remain at risk for the first year after their pregnancy has ended.

The task force ranked cardiac events and hypertension/eclampsia as the first and third most common causes of maternal deaths in Texas, statistics experts believe may be exacerbated by a general population that is growing unhealthier across the board, making pregnancies more complex.

“The number of women we see who have a BMI over 40, who have diabetes and hypertension, is definitely rising,” Blackwell said. “Today, well over half of women who are having babies in the state of Texas are obese. Our population is getting sicker.”
