Maternal mortality is a major public health concern worldwide. It is the number of preventable deaths that occur each year due to pregnancy and childbirth. The research investigates how machine learning may be used to minimize maternal mortality. Historical data on maternal health is used to develop predictive models, early detection systems, and resource allocation techniques. Machine learning helps to identify risk factors, monitor vital signs, and improve access to care. This allows for targeted interventions and better healthcare delivery. The challenges of data accessibility and model interpretation are addressed, highlighting the ethical and equitable applications of machine learning in maternal healthcare. This study emphasizes the potential of machine learning to reduce maternal mortality rates and the pressing need for its incorporation into healthcare systems worldwide.
