Some of the causes of maternal deaths include obstetric emergencies which include bleeding severe during delivery or a hemorrhage following delivery, and pre-existing conditions like obesity and diabetes that affect pregnancy and childbirth. However doctors also have the responsibility to be aware of and take care of warning signs, like high blood pressure that could lead to the dangerous condition known as preeclampsia. Preeclampsia could cause a premature separation of the placenta from the uterus and seizures. It may also lead to a life-threatening illness called HELLP Syndrome.

Medical malpractice lawsuits that involve gynecology and obstetrics are among the most common kinds of lawsuits filed in the United States. In a malpractice lawsuit, a claimant must prove that the healthcare provider or doctor breached the accepted standard of care and that that violation led to the plaintiff's injury or death. The standards of care are defined by the legal community and differs from state to state. Despite the number of malpractice claims, the majority settle without ever going to trial. Settlements are usually reached through direct negotiation between the parties, and sometimes with the help of an impartial mediator (often a retired judge or attorney). Medical malpractice lawsuits are not the only way to disqualify a doctor from practicing immediately.

Joan's husband, for example suffered a fatal lung tumour that was missed by an x-ray. The doctor who failed to follow up on the patient's symptoms or conduct an MRI after the patient complained of breathing difficulties was responsible for his death. The delay in treatment allowed the tumor to grow and cause irreparable harm.
