Development and internal validation of a model predicting severe maternal morbidity using pre-conception and early pregnancy variables: a population-based study in Ontario, Canada

Abstract: Background Improvement in the prediction and prevention of severe maternal morbidity (SMM) - a range of life-threatening conditions during pregnancy, at delivery or within 42 days postpartum - is a public health priority. Reduction of SMM at a population level would be facilitated by early identification and prediction. We sought to develop and internally validate a model to predict maternal end-organ injury or death using variables routinely collected during pre-pregnancy and the early pregnan… Show more

“…Although less prevalent, prepregnancy ED visits for a hematological, endocrine, or circulatory condition was associated with the highest RR of SMM (Table 4). Prepregnancy anemia, diabetes, and chronic hypertension have congruently been shown to be associated with SMM, stillbirth, and neonatal mortality in large cohort studies. ED visits for mental health diagnoses were prevalent and, similar to other studies, were associated with a higher risk of serious adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes.…”

“…The American Heart Association has recommended that CRF be used as a risk marker for morbidity and mortality in the general population [ 12 ], and our review suggests that CRF may be particularly valuable as a clinical vital sign in the peripartum period and during reproductive years. CRF may also prove useful in clinical prediction of maternal morbidity, as adverse cardiovascular outcomes make up a substantial proportion of severe maternal morbidity [ 37 , 38 ]. Finally, our findings suggest that dedicated postpartum cardiovascular rehabilitation after HDP may be worthwhile, using a patient-centred approach sensitive to the needs of new mothers.…”

“…Tasa de mortalidad materna: es el número de muertes maternas durante un período determinado por cada 100.000 nacidos vivos durante el mismo período. Este es un indicador de uso más común del riesgo de que una mujer muera a causa de un embarazo determinado o de su riesgo obstétrico 6 .…”
