摘要：

In order to evaluate the level of maternal mortality at Conakry, capital of Guinea (West Africa), a descriptive epidemiological study was made of all maternal deaths occurring between July 1st, 1989 and June 30th, 1990. To ensure that cases of maternal death were recorded as exhaustively as possible, we conducted this study over 1 year in municipal and hospital maternity units, and 3 months in the urban community. One hundred thirty-nine maternal deaths were registered, representing an annual maternal mortality rate of 559/100 000 live births. The main causes of maternal death were abortion, complications linked with hypertension, and postpartum bleeding.
