ABSTRACT

Introduction: Maternal mortality has been used as a tool for measuring and monitoring the care of pregnant women through the years, however, at extreme maternal morbidity (near miss) defined as a patient during pregnancy, childbirth or puerperium presents events that potentially life-threatening but due to an intervention that does not die is used to assessing the quality of obstetrical care in hospitals or population. Objective: To determine the extreme maternal morbidity and maternal mortality in the Hospital of Gynecology and Obstetrics Maternal-Child Institute of the State of Mexico. Material and methods: An observational, descriptive, retrospective and cross, where the information was collected using the criteria of the World Health Organization case definition for extreme maternal morbidity and maternal mortality.Results: The frequency of extreme maternal morbidity was 221 cases per year and maternal mortality rate was two cases per year. The main causes of maternal morbidity extreme hypertensive disorders were 77.2% (n = 172), followed by postpartum hemorrhage with 11.7% (n = 22) and sepsis with 3.6% (n = 8). Sepsis occupied the 50% (n = 1) mortality. Conclusions: The mortality rate was 0.0009% and the extreme maternal morbidity/mortality was 110, which expresses the high quality of care received at the of study hospital.
