Determining factors in maternal neonatal health: an analysis of the state of the art
Main Article Content
Keywords
maternal, neonatal, health, public policies, bibliometrics
Abstract
Objective: the objective of this study is to analyze the state of the art regarding maternal and neonatal health in the national and international spheres.
Methodology: SCOPUS and PubMed databases were consulted in order to extract more updated information as required. The study used articles published between the years 1990 and 2022 (July).
Results: As a result of the bibliometric analysis, a set of statistical evidence was obtained, which helped visualize the production, type, profusion and authorship of the selected studies.
Discussion: It is discussed that, of the indicators identified, mortality, both maternal and neonatal, represents the most significant indicator and that all the studies consulted. One of the main coincidences perceived is that there is evidence that demonstrates the independent relationship between maternal health and neonatal health, so studying them separately does not seem to be the most advisable thing to do. Some discrepancies have also been detected regarding strategies to reverse negative indicators.
Conclusion: From the indicators identified, mortality of both maternal and neonatal is the most significant indicator and also the one to which all the studies consulted point as an objective to be reduced with the application of various programs, starting with those established by the WHO.
