Abstract
A healthcare monitoring arrangement is essential for frequently
monitoring a patient's health status. Specifically, maternal healthcare
systems for tracking are utilized to evaluate the clinical status and
monitor any abnormal condition changes during all three trimesters.
This paper's objective is to conduct an extensive literature review and
acknowledge earlier initiatives and studies conducted previously in
maternal health care monitoring. This review focuses on accumulating
information from earlier work and presents a general overview of
previous studies concerning maternal health care monitoring
(MHCM). The paper focuses on the maternal healthcare systems in
developing countries accessed by pregnant women during the antenatal
period. Furthermore, this paper highlights the challenges in the
maternal health sector that include inadequate work conditions for
health workers, home-based birth practices, long distances to
healthcare facilities, and long waiting times in health facilities. The
paper indicates the potential opportunities to strengthen maternal
healthcare services and allow effective access to maternal healthcare
facilities by pregnant women
