This research has proposed the use of survival analysis techniques in achieving appropriate estimates of maternal mortality and its usefulness. The results of its request for data from Delta State, Nigeria, showed that although about 90% of pregnant women survived childbirth, only 86% survived until the end of the postpartum period. There were significant differences by location, and Maternal Age: The Weibull distribution well reflected maternal survival.
