Abstract

India is still a country with high  maternal mortality rate of 178 per 100000 live births. Since severe obstetric morbidities and complications are directly linked to ICU admission, we conducted a study in a tertiary care hospital to determine the rate of ICU admission of obstetric patients and their underlying causes. The results show primigravida to be most vulnerable and haemorrhage due to a variety of underlying etiologies to be the most  common cause of ICU admission. Eclampsia, respiratory distress, electrolyte imbalance, anaphylactic reaction, hypotension, ectopic  pregnancy are some of the most common causes.

Keywords: Obstetric Cases in Intensive Care.
