Despite growing acceptance of the role of context in shaping perinatal risk, data on how neighborhood factors may identify high-risk obstetric patients is limited. In this study, we evaluated the effect of neighborhood deprivation and neighborhood racial composition on severe maternal morbidity (SMM) among persons delivered in a large public health system in Atlanta, Georgia. We conducted a population cohort study using electronic medical record data on all deliveries at Grady Memorial Hospital during 2011–2020. Using residential zip codes, we calculated neighborhood deprivation index based on data from the US Census. We used log-binomial regression with generalized estimating equations to estimate crude and adjusted relative risks (aRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association between tertile of neighborhood deprivation and SMM, adjusting for demographic, clinical, and neighborhood-level (racial composition, food desert, and transit access) covariates. Among 25,257 deliveries, 6.2% (1566) experienced SMM. Approximately 24.0%, 32.0%, and 44.0% of women lived in the lowest, middle, and highest tertile of neighborhood deprivation, respectively and 64.9% lived in a neighborhood with majority non-Hispanic Black residents. After adjustment, there was no association between neighborhood deprivation and SMM (aRR: 1.0 (0.8, 1.1)) or residence in a majority Black neighborhood and SMM (aRR:1.0 (0.9, 1.2)). In this safety-net hospital, residence in a high deprivation or majority Black neighborhood did not predict SMM at or following delivery. Individual-level social determinants may better explain variation in risk, particularly in high-burden populations.
