2. DEFINITION
WHO has defined maternal morbidity as “any
health condition attributed to and/or
complicating pregnancy, and childbirth that has a
negative impact on the woman’s well-being
and/or functioning”.
3. MATERNAL
NEAR MISS/
SEVERE
MATERNAL
MORBIDITY(S
MM)
When a woman nearly dies, but survives a complication
during pregnancy, childbirth or within 42 days of
termination of pregnancy
WHO identifies a maternal near miss using the signs of
organ dysfunction that follow life threatening
conditions.

27. TO
CONCLUDE
Good antenatal care and vigilant monitoring during and after child birth is
an essential part in minimizing the number of maternal morbidity cases
Plan of time and mode of delivery for every high risk or low risk delivery should
be made appropriately and discussed with seniors and team timely
Any risk or threat to the mother either in ante natal period , intra partum or
post partum period should be anticipated on time, prompt discussion with
seniors and consultants , to lessen maternal morbidity and mortality
Proper councelling and hygiene care should be explained to all patients in their
ante partum and post partum period
Proper breast feeding and contraception councelling can also minimize
maternal morbidity
28. CONTINUED
We must analyze our all cases of maternal
morbidity and near miss and learn from our
deficiencies to improve maternal care and
provide safest and best services to all the
mothers in future
