Maternal death is considered one of the great challenges of global public health, especially to developing countries, representing one of the greatest violations of women's human rights, since more than 92% of these deaths are due to preventable causes. Objective: To analyze the scientific publications in the field of public health and epidemiology on maternal death, its causes and surveillance strategies. Methodology: This is an integrative review of the literature with articles published and indexed in the Virtual Health Library (VHL) and LILACS and MEDLINE databases. Results and discussion: Of the 71 articles found, after applying the inclusion, exclusion and analysis of the content, 9 were selected for the analysis of the study. Two nuclei of meaning were identified: Clinical and epidemiological aspects of maternal deaths and Surveillance strategies for maternal death. Conclusion: Maternal deaths are mainly due to preventable causes, such as hemorrhagic and hypertensive gestational diseases. Regarding surveillance of these deaths, community-based surveillance shows itself as a low-cost strategy, easy implementation and good effectiveness in quantifying these deaths and thus subsidize the creation of public health policies to address this problem.
