| English abstract | Este artigo descreve o perfil de saúde das mães brasileiras no Massachusetts, de acordo com os dados coletados através de Massachusetts Standard Certificate of Live Births (revisão de 1989) relacionado com o Massachusetts Registry of Vital Records and Statistics durante 1999 e 2009. Conforme nosso conhecimento esta é a primeira vez que tais dados são analisados com foco nos imigrantes brasileiros. As conclusões deste artigo sugerem que as mães brasileiras que deram à luz em Massachusetts entre 1999 e 2009 se saíram melhor do que o total das mães em Massachusetts no que diz respeito aos indicadores de saúde obstétrica |
