ABSTRACT
This study is on high-risk pregnancies and perceptions of maternal mortality among
women in Plateau State of Nigeria. Four research questions were stated to guide the
study, with specific objectives which include: to explain the manifestations of
maternal mortality; to determine the extent to which socio-cultural factors are
responsible for high-risk pregnancies and to investigate respondents knowledge of
maternal mortality in relationship to their indulgence in high-risk pregnancies.
Relevant literatures were reviewed, while the political economy was for analysis.
Both primary and secondary data were explored for the study and quantitative and
qualitative techniques of data collection were triangulated for analysis. Using the
Yamane’s sample size determination technique, 400 respondents were selected for the
study. Questionnaires were administered on 300 respondents who were women within
reproductive ages (15-49); in-depth interviews were conducted on 16 key informants
drawn from medical personnel’s and women within reproductive ages in the study
area. In addition, 7 focus group discussions (FGDs) consisting of 84 participants (12
in each group) were carried out. Data were analyzed and findings revealed that high-
risk pregnancies were major contributory factors to the high-rate of maternal mortality
in Plateau state. Every pregnancy was found to be associated with high-risk due to
obstetric factors, medical conditions and unpredicted outcomes. Findings on the first
objective indicated that high-risk pregnancies are practiced in Plateau state, but early
pregnancies were more common as compared to order forms. This suggests that most
women marry early and give birth before age 34. Findings on the second objective
indicated that maternal mortality as a result of high-risk pregnancies is still a social
problem in Plateau state. Findings on the third objective indicated that social factors
