ABSTRACT
Maternal mortality rates in Northern Ghana are extremely high and for an individual woman in the district; the risk of dying from maternal mortality is 1 in 18. Efforts to reduce the scale of suffering in the area are tampered by the lack of community based data. A community based study was designed in mid 1991 to determine the principal risk factors of maternal mortality in the Kassena-Nankana district and to suggest appropriate interventions to reduce maternal mortality in the region
