Maternal “near miss”, Retrospective, Maternal mortality, pregnancy.

A maternal near miss case is defined as a woman who nearly died but survived a complication that occurred during pregnancy, childbirth or within 42 days after the termination of pregnancy. In 2009, World Health Organization (WHO) has developed new system based on organ system dysfunction which incorporates clinical, laboratory and management-based criteria for identifying maternal near miss. Hence, this study was conducted with the objective to determine the trend of maternal near misses’ cases at Dschang District hospital from 1er January 2013 to December 2020. A hospital-based descriptive and qualitative study was conducted in Dschang District Hospital from February 2021 to July 2021. In this study we recorded 166 cases of MNM from the January 2013 to December 2020; the majority of women with potentially life-threatening conditions were referred (57.2%) from private clinic. During this period there were 10271 births. One hundred and twenty-three (123) women developed severe maternal outcomes, 166 were maternal ‘near miss’ morbidity and 15 were maternal deaths. This study concludes hypertensive disorders (42.8%), haemorrhage disorders (28.9%) and pregnancy with abortive outcome (21%) was the leading causes for maternal near miss.
