Applying the Maternal Near Miss Approach for the Evaluation of Quality of Obstetric Care: A Worked Example from a Multicenter Surveillance Study

Abstract: Objective. To assess quality of care of women with severe maternal morbidity and to identify associated factors. Method. This is a national multicenter cross-sectional study performing surveillance for severe maternal morbidity, using the World Health Organization criteria. The expected number of maternal deaths was calculated with the maternal severity index (MSI) based on the severity of complication, and the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) for each center was estimated. Analyses on the adequacy of care w… Show more

“…The systematic monitoring of severe maternal morbidity through indicators of potentially life-threatening maternal conditions is also suggested as an important strategy to understand their determining factors and to intervene in them in a timely manner. The development of improved care technologies can significantly reduce maternal morbidity 38,[40][41][42] . Finally, this study's results support a deeper analysis of the phenomena of IPV and severe maternal morbidity as a priority to qualify the integral health care provided to women.…”

“…However, as the maternal mortality has improved tremendously especially in developed country, maternal near miss was used instead. Maternal near miss [12] case is defined as a woman who nearly died but survived a complication that occurred during pregnancy, childbirth, or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy. Maternal near miss constitutes a proxy to maternal death as they survived severe maternal complication.…”

“…No Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, um estudo realizado entre outubro de 2013 a setembro de 2014, que contou com 492 mulheres, evidenciou como fator de risco, além de condições clínicas que corroboram as pesquisas já citadas, um número de consultas de pré-natal inferior ao preconizado (OR=5,0; RP=4,2; IC95% 2,5-9,7) e a via de parto cesárea (OR=39,2; RP=31,2; IC95% 9,3-164,5) (17) . Esse achado é corroborado por outros estudos que associam a ausência de cuidados pré-natais com aumento no risco de desenvolver uma ocorrência de Near Miss (18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31) . Um estudo de caso-controle realizado no Marrocos, com 299 mulheres, em 2012, encontrou uma incidência de Near Miss Materno de 12/1.000 nascidos vivos, com proporção maior para os seguintes fatores de risco quando comparados ao grupo controle: analfabetismo (65% versus 22%, p<0,001); baixo nível socioeconômico (42% versus 10%, p<0,001); história de aborto prévio (21% versus 7%, p<0,001); maior ocorrência de complicações na gravidez (51% versus 19%, p<0,001), e, por fim, menor proporção de mulheres com Near Miss teve acesso aos cuidados de saúde dentro de 24 horas do início de trabalho de parto (19% versus 67%).…”

Os casos de Near Miss relacionaram as seguintes condições: síndromes hipertensivas (45%), hemorragias (39%) e infecções graves (10%) (31) . A literatura atesta o nível educacional como fator protetor à promoção e manutenção da saúde materna-infantil.…”
