Doctors call for inquiry into rising perinatal deaths
Associate Professor Gino Pecoraro said maternity services were in 'a real crisis mode'.
A leading obstetrician is calling for a national inquiry into maternity care after new data revealed the perinatal death rate in Queensland had jumped by almost 50% over four years.
Associate Professor Gino Pecoraro said a recent Productivity Commission report on government services showed that maternity services across the state were still in “crisis mode”.
