Abstract: Maternal death equality indexes are calculated based on maternal health care data from the national health routine reports 2000~2005.Although materual mortality rate(MMR)decreased from 2000 to 2005,it is much higher in the western than in the eastern.China Poverty reduction could eliminate 53%~60% the MMR.The concentration indexes are all negative in the year of 2000~2005,and all the L(p)lies above the diagonal,inequalities in mortality favour the better-off women.More seriously,the MMR gap between the provinces and the regions largely unchanged during the year 2000~2005.That means the maternal death inequality exists in our country without any effective effort to eliminate it.

摘要： 文章利用2000～2005年全国卫生统计年报中孕产妇死亡情况有关资料,计算了以孕产妇死亡率为基础的一系列健康公平性指标,分析了2000～2005年间我国孕产妇死亡的健康公平性。研究结果从人群归因危险度百分比、集中指数、集中曲线等指标反映出在我国孕产妇死亡存在分布的不均衡。2000～2005年我国孕产妇死亡在地区间及省际的差距没有明显变化,即不公平现象6年间没有得到改善。
