However, measuring maternal mortality is difficult and complex. Reliable estimates of the dimensions of the problem are not generally available and it is difficult to compare the data obtained from different sources and to assess the overall magnitude of the problem. In response to these challenges, WHO, UNICEF and UNFPA have developed an approach that seeks both to generate estimates for countries with no data and to correct available 606 $aMothers$xMortality 606 $aMothers$xMortality$vStatistics 606 $aPregnant women$xMortality 606 $aPregnant women$xMortality$vStatistics 606 $aChildbirth 615 0$aMothers$xMortality. 615 0$aMothers$xMortality 615 0$aPregnant women$xMortality. 615 0$aPregnant women$xMortality 615 0$aChildbirth. 676 $a614.5/9922 676 $a614.599279 700 $aAbou Zahr$b Carla$01685100 701 $aWardlaw$b Tessa M$01685101 701 $aHill$b Ken$f1945-$0254267 701 $aChoi$b Yoonjoung$01685102 712 02$aWorld Health Organization.$bReproductive Health and Research. 712 02$aUnited Nations Population Fund. 712 02$aUNICEF. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825648703321 996 $aMaternal mortality in 2000$94056962 997 $aUNINA
