Maternal Mortality Review Committee moves into executive session to review confidential deaths

The Maternal Mortality Review Committee held its April meeting and, after approving its February minutes by motion and second, voted to enter an executive session to discuss confidential matters related to maternal deaths in Connecticut.

The chair said the committee would enter a closed session to "discuss confidential matters related to maternal deaths in Connecticut requiring privacy to deliberate on the issue." A motion to go into executive session was made and seconded, and the committee transitioned to the closed session. Staff provided the Zoom link for committee members to join the closed meeting.

Because the executive session was closed to the public to protect privacy, committee members did not discuss case details in the public record. After the closed session, committee business concluded and a motion to adjourn was moved and seconded; the chair closed the meeting and thanked attendees.

The public record for this meeting includes the roll call of attendees and the procedural actions taken on the public agenda: approving prior minutes, entering executive session, and adjourning. Details discussed during the executive session are confidential and were not read into the public transcript.
