Abstract

A fuzzy system for identifying pregnancy with a risk of maternal death is proposed in this paper. The system aims at identifying a high risk of maternal death, be it during pregnancy, or within 42 h after childbirth. The maternal age, number of prenatal appointments, and previous number of children/childbirth correspond to the input linguistic variables used to compute the risk of maternal death. The proposed approach employs the Mamdani inference system to represent the uncertainty and imprecision concerning the sort of diagnosing variables. Results demonstrate that the non-invasive system can be used by different health professionals, including in a screening process for pregnancy, thus avoiding maternal deaths.
