Abstract

The economy is impacted by a variety of variables that may be grouped into five main categories known as health determinants. These include Water resources, Salary, Type of house, Education, and Treatment Centers. The wider economic factors are referred to as these. The study makes use of secondary data obtained in rural areas. ANOVA and multivariate methods were used to examine the data. We determine the contributing factors to maternal health in rural lifestyles, the root causes of health problems, and risk factors for individuals. The present study includes a survey in the region of the rural Visakhapatnam district.

Keywords: Health Determinants, Rural Economy, Maternal Health, Visakhapatnam District, Multivariate Analysis, Secondary Data
