Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify and determine the frequency and nature of near misses in pregnant women and in the postpartum period.
Methods
In the Turkestan region (Kazakhstan), a retrospective review of cases of critical situations and cases of maternal mortality that occurred during the 12 months of 2022 was conducted. 201 cases of critical conditions in obstetric-gynaecological practice that occurred in 22 regional institutions of all three levels of perinatal care were analysed.
Results
The causes of cases of near misses in the provision of medical care to pregnant women, maternity women, and women in labour were determined. 0.3% of maternal near misses from the total number of births were registered in the region, of which obstetric causes accounted for 58.2% and extragenital—41.8%.
Conclusion
It was found that cases of maternal near misses were 1.2 times more often recorded in the postpartum period compared to the antenatal period. A difficult situation regarding the management of the postpartum period has developed in institutions of the second level of perinatal care, where 62% of maternal near misses were observed in the postpartum period.
