Intro

Hemorrhage is the leading cause of Severe Maternal Morbidity (SMM) in Tennessee. Between 2018-2022 hemorrhage accounted for 34% of SMM indicators, which is more than double the number of respiratory morbidities which is the second common category. 

Hemorrhage also accounted for 37% of pregnancy related deaths occurring on the day of delivery from 2018-2022 in Tennessee.
