Editorial

The United Nations recognises the moral importance of health in its Sustainable Development Goals, noting that the elimination of maternal and early neonatal mortality is health outcomes that should be available to all women around the world. Complete prevention necessitates the inclusion of a skill set for maternity care a team that is orders of magnitude more than what is now available. An expanded framework of ethical imperatives becomes increasingly relevant when universities, individuals, institutions, and non-governmental organisations join in attempts to eradicate unnecessary maternal and newborn mortality. Aside from the traditional principles of non-maleficence, beneficence, autonomy, and social justice, cultural relativity and imbalances between high and low income countries have given rise to broader ethical imperatives such as mutual respect, trust, open communication, accountability, transparency, leadership capacity building, and sustainability. Other women's challenges, such as HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, and chronic non-infectious diseases, can all be handled more effectively via a lens of ethical global health engagement.

The classic understanding of clinical ethics is recognisable to most practitioners. Clinical interactions should be directed by the principles of beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and respect for autonomy, according to Beauchamp and Childress. Physicians around the world are increasingly being urged to go beyond a case-by-case approach to ethics and contribute to global health by participating in research, policy creation, and clinical care in low-resource nations with significant inequities and disparities in health care. Global health was once thought to be the domain of public health experts and missionaries, but the increasingly complicated policy, training, and clinical components of health-care issues necessitate a proper response from physician leaders.

Health has specific moral relevance; consequently, health inequalities are likewise ethically significant, they say of the first. The goal of health justice is to eliminate unjust and preventable health disparities. After that, they look at the moral implications of geopolitical boundaries. The writers differentiate between "cosmopolitan" and "anti-cosmopolitan perspectives on this topic. Cosmopolitans claim that every person is a ‘world citizen’ and thus boundaries have no moral relevance; on the other hand, anti-cosmopolitans argue that morality is ‘local’ and specific to cultures. Global health ethics is a relatively new topic of interest for caregivers and academics, and it provides a lens and a guide for obstetricians and gynaecologists who want to interact globally. They give a definition of the discipline in their review of prominent theories and significant subjects" in global health ethics: "A phrase used to conceptualise the process of assigning moral value to health concerns that are often characterised by a global level affect or require action coordinated at a worldwide level is global health ethics."

High maternal and newborn mortality rates are a chronic global problem. When maternal mortality was initially identified as a neglected pandemic in 1985, the global health community responded in a variety of methods that lessened the problem but did not "fix" it. The earliest WHO estimates of maternal mortality, published in 1990, estimated that more than 500,000 women died every year around the world. The global maternal death rate of 395 per 100,000 live births was dwarfed by the rate of 987 per 100,000 in Sub-Saharan Africa. The latest recent figures from 2015 show a maternal mortality ratio of 216 in the United States and 546 in Sub-Saharan Africa. When subdivided by socioeconomic position, however, ratios within a country vary greatly. Although all pregnancies are at risk, women in higher socioeconomic categories have better access to care. During this time, infant mortality has reduced. The fraction of newborn deaths due to early neonatal causes rises as infant mortality falls. Preeclampsia patients have extremely high perinatal fatality rates [1-6].
