Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the epidemiological and clinical aspects of severe morbidity and maternal near miss. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study with logistic regression was conducted in seven public intensive care units between 2011 and 2013. Results: Hemorrhage was the most frequent complication in women in the third and fourth decade of life, followed by hypertension; those conditions have increased the risk of death and delay in intervention. Conclusion: The high number of maternal near misses needs further risk assessment studies in obstetric emergencies to identify rapidly maternal complications.
