Results: The study was conducted in the period 2018 to 2021 with the type of research using retrospective data.

Indirect factors such as age, health facility access, inadequate tools, and health services, access to knowledge, cultural practice, and poverty. Direct factors are comorbidities such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and immune impairment. Pregnant women who do not have comorbidities can have a poor prognosis with undetected causes of death. Health facilities need to conduct early screening so that direct and indirect factors can be minimized to prevent maternal mortality. }, issn = {2620-4053}, pages = {100--108} doi = {10.14710/jpki.18.2.100-108}, url = {https://ejournal.undip.ac.id/index.php/jpki/article/view/51341} }
