| Abstract | The current paper will measure the changes and trends in the maternal and newborn health indicators in Bangladesh between the period 2017 and 2025. The metrics that are targeted in the research are the maternal mortality ratio (MMR), neonatal mortality rate (NMR), stillbirth rate (SBR), skilled birth attended (SBA) and postnatal care (PNC) services. The study will be able to get a holistic picture of the effectiveness of healthcare interventions and the strides towards minimizing maternal and neonatal death rates by using the secondary data in the form of national health surveys and governmental reports. In the analysis, it has shown that there are considerable changes that have been made in a number of aspects such as maternal and neonatal mortality reduction, access to skilled birth attendance and antenatal care. Nonetheless, a limited number of indicators of changes in health points to the fact that there is no consistent progress. The paper further focuses on how the healthcare infrastructure, socioeconomic factors, and access to healthcare determine the health outcomes of maternal and newborns. Through these results, the study provides some evidence-based recommendations to enhance the maternal and new born health services in Bangladesh further. |
