We used generalized estimating equations to fit quasi\u2010Poisson regression models for cardiovascular severe maternal morbidity and mortality (SMM) events as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and non\u2010SMM cardiovascular conditions or complications as defined by the Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health. Incidence rate ratios were calculated for depression, anxiety, psychosis, bipolar, obsessive\u2010compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and other mental health conditions. Results were adjusted for clinical risk, social risk, and pregnancy characteristics, and clustered by hospital.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">\n                      Of 667\u2009502 delivery hospitalizations, 82\u2009543 (12.4%) had a mental health diagnosis.

Overall, 791 (0.1%) patients had &gt;1 SMM event and 9007 (1.3%) had a non\u2010SMM cardiovascular condition or complication.
