摘要
Maternal health outcomes are profoundly influenced by socioeconomic determinants, posing significant challenges to achieving equitable care for pregnant women worldwide. This research examines the impact of socioeconomic factors on maternal health, aiming to assess the extent of inequality among expectant mothers. Employing diverse research methodologies and data analysis techniques, this study investigates the multifaceted relationship between socioeconomic status and maternal health outcomes. Findings reveal distinct disparities in access to healthcare, influenced by income, education, employment, and housing conditions. These disparities contribute to varying maternal health outcomes, emphasizing the critical need for targeted interventions. The study recommends tailored strategies, encompassing improved healthcare access, educational initiatives, workplace support, and policy enhancements to address socioeconomic inequalities in maternal health effectively. This research underscores the urgency of comprehensive interventions to ensure equitable maternal healthcare for all pregnant women, irrespective of their socioeconomic backgrounds.
