Background: severe maternal morbidity is a serious complication that occurs during pregnancy, labor and puerperium and is a risk for women’s life.
Objective: to determine the risk factors for extremely serious maternal morbidity in pregnant women seen at the obstetric and gynecology service of “Ernesto Guevara de la Serna” General Teaching Hospital of Las Tunas, from 2012 through 2014.
Methods: a retrospective analytic study of the type cases and control was carried out at the place and during the time herein mentioned. The sample was made up of 80 patients that were admitted in a critical condition, as the study group, and 160 patients that progressed satisfactorily in the ward, as the control group. The clinical histories and prenatal follow-up charts were checked.
Results: preeclampsia, retroplacental hematoma, placenta previa, ovular sepsis, uterine rupture, puerperal sepsis and cesarean section showed causal association as risk factors for critical morbidity in pregnant women. Adequate prenatal care and physiological labor were protecting factors. Statistically there was no significant causal association in those patients who presented chronic diseases as cardiopathies, anemia, bronchial asthma, as well as pregnancy conditions, premature rupture of membranes and gestational diabetes.
Conclusions: the risk factors for extremely serious maternal morbidity in pregnant women of Las Tunas were identified.
