The purpose of this study was to analyze the close determinants, intermediate determinants and distant determinants of maternal death in Indramayu Regency in 2020. This type of research is observational analytic with a case control study design. The sample was 38 case groups and the control group was 76 mothers giving birth. Data analysis includes univariate analysis, bivariate analysis (Chi-Square) and multivariate analysis using logistic regression. The results showed a relationship between close determinants pregnancy complications (p value 0.000), childbirth complications (p value 0.000) postpartum complications (p value 0.000) with maternal mortality. There is a relationship between the quality of service (p value 0.000) with maternal mortality. There is a relationship between distant determinants of education (p value 0.017) with maternal mortality. There is no relationship between anemia status (p value 0.399), antenatal examination (p value 0.276) with maternal mortality, There is no relationship between distant determinants of work (p value 0.331), economic status (p value 0.789) with maternal mortality. The most dominant factor related to maternal mortality is pregnancy complications with (p value 0.000).
