📣 New Publication Alert!

The HHS Office on Women’s Health is pleased to spotlight a recently published article in The Lancet Regional Health – Americas. “A Novel Maternal Prenatal Risk Index to Predict Mortality-Weighted Severe Maternal Morbidity at Hospitalization” introduces a new maternal Prenatal Risk Index (m-PRI) that more accurately identifies patients at risk for severe maternal morbidity.
