India aims to achieve the Millennium Development Goal 5 of reducing maternal mortality. During the last two decades, India has witnessed a significant reduction in the quantum of maternal deaths. Furthermore, to reach the goal we need to have a true representation of the causes of maternal deaths, so as to identify gaps and take corrective measures. Traditionally, the analysis of maternal deaths has been the criteria of choice for evaluating medical and systemic causes.

As you are aware, Maternal Death Review system has been institutionalised in India. However, much more needs to be known. The pregnant women who suffer severe complications and come close to maternal death but do not die are the “near-misses” which need to be investigated for finding programme gaps. Due to the success of modern medicine, maternal deaths are fewer in number but there are innumerable “near miss” events which have the potential to teach us lessons.

Near miss cases often precede the loss but are largely ignored because nothing (death) happened. Once we unfold the reasons for the near miss cases, we can take effective measures to avoid these eventualities. I hope that these guidelines will be an empowering tool for the medical colleges, where majority of near miss cases are likely to happen. Knowing the cause of near misses can lead to taking measures for further improvement of health outcomes.

I believe that the MNM Guideline will be useful to the States in identifying the required action needed for improving both maternal and neonatal health.

FOREWORD

The successful implementation of NRHM since its launch is 2005 is clearly evident by the many fold increase in OPD, IPD and other relevant services being delivered in the Public health institutions, however, the quality of services being delivered still remains an issue. The offered services should not only be judged by its technical quality but also from the perspective of service seekers. An ambient and bright environment where the patients are received with dignity and respect along with prompt care are some of the important

factors of judging quality from the clients’ perspective.

Till now most of the States’ approach toward the quality is based on accreditation of Public Health Facilities by external organizations which at times is hard to sustain over a period of time after that support is withdrawn. Quality can only be sustained, if there is an inbuilt system within the institution along with ownership by the providers working in the facility As Aristotle said “Quality is not as act but a habit”

Quality Assurance (QA) is cyclical process which needs to be continuously monitored against defined standards and measurable elements. Regular assessment of health facilities by their own staff and state and ‘action-planning’ for traversing the observed gaps is the only way in having a viable quality assurance prgramme in Public Health. Therefore, the Ministry of Health and Family welfare (MOHFW) has prepared a comprehensive system of the quality assurance which can be operationalzed through the institutional mechanism and platforms of NRHM.

I deeply appreciate the initiative taken by Maternal Health division and NHSRC of this Ministry in preparing these guidelines after a wide range of consultations. It is hoped that States’ Mission Directors and Programme Officers will take advantage of these guidelines and initiate quick and time bound actions as per the road map placed in the guidelines.

Maternal mortality is a critical indicator to assess the quality of services provided by a health care system. Globally, there has been decline in MMR, and India is leading this global trend. One of the key contributors to our success is the stepped up resources and additional efforts being made under NHM for improving health care.

India aims not only to achieve the Millennium Development Goal 5 of reducing maternal mortality but keep the decline accelerating beyond 2015. To achieve this, we need to have a true representation of the causes of maternal deaths, so as to identify gaps and take corrective actions.

Government of India initiated Maternal Death Review to identify and assess the gap in programme implementation and take corrective action. However, the current MDR format is not equipped to gather information on those pregnant women who delivered through complications and just about averted mortality. Investigating such cases of life threatening obstetric morbidity or maternal near miss helps in taking measures for further improvement of service delivery and programme.

The present guidelines on MNM will be an empowering tool for the medical colleges, where majority of near miss cases are likely to happen. Knowing the cause of near misses can lead to taking measures for further improvement of health outcomes.

I would like to see all Centres of Excellences and Medical Colleges initiating this important intervention on priority which can be subsequently scaled up in phases.

(C. K. Mishra)

Page 8: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Maternal mortality is a critical event to assess the quality of a health care system. The standard indicator for measuring this is the Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR), defined as the ratio of the number of maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. Due to improved health care, there has been decline in MMR globally and in India as well MMR has declined steadily. There is a need to further accelerate this decline for achieving our national and international targets and goals.

Women who have survived complications during pregnancy and childbirth have been studied as surrogates of maternal deaths and been termed Maternal Near Miss. Reviews of such cases are considered a less threatening approach to improve maternal health care by the service providers.

With this tool, we will be able to identify the delays during the near miss and thereafter and take corrective action. Moreover, service providers are happy to report MNM since ultimately the life of the mother is saved; this has been proved during the pilot conducted on MNM.

This will enable us to utilise the opportunities to prevent the deaths of mother who might face a similar fate. As Near Miss occurs much more frequently than maternal deaths, a more reliable quantitative analysis can provide a comprehensive profile of the health system functioning.

Near misses are relatively simpler to analyse and easier to resolve. This knowledge will help in identifying the contributory factors of maternal deaths so that actions can be taken at community and health systems level. I am sure that these guidelines will definitely bring a sharper focus on decreasing number of maternal deaths and morbidities in India.

FOREWORD

Page 9: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW
Page 10: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

This is well known that complications during pregnancy and child birth can take place at any point of time, so it is important that the basic and emergency obstetric care health facilities remain in readiness in terms of infrastructure, HR, equipments etc. for timely management of complications. If such complications are not managed on time sometimes they become fatal. Government of India initiated Maternal Death Review to know the gap in the implementation of the programme and take corrective action.

The review however is not able to capture those pregnant women who suffered complications and delivered but just missed the fatality. As you know, there are several advantages of investigating near miss cases e.g. they are more common than maternal deaths, provide useful information on the same pathways that leads to morbidity and death, less threatening for service providers as women has survived, women can be interviewed and as a result more realistic analysis of gaps can be done. Thus investigating severe maternal morbidity (near-miss) helps to identify women at highest risk of maternal death and helps allocate resources especially in the area where it is needed most.

I would like to express that these guidelines would not have been possible without the constant encouragement from Mr. C.K Mishra, AS&MD & Ms Anuradha Gupta, Ex AS& MD. Dr. Rakesh Kumar, Joint Secretary (RMNCH+A) headed the expert group meeting and gave valuable inputs in framing this guideline.

I would like to acknowledge the contribution of all members of the Expert Group in developing the content of these technical and operational guidelines. I would also like to acknowledge my colleagues in MH Division especially Dr. Dinesh Baswal, DC(MH) and development partner’s for their valuable efforts and inputs in developing this document.

The present guidelines are an empowering tool for the OBGYN Department of Medical Colleges where majority of near miss are likely to happen. Systematic review of such cases can help to bring forth various contributory factors whether it is medical, social, economical and other factors for necessary corrective actions which could be taken at State, District or at Community level for reduction in maternal mortality and morbidity.

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 2014 15

Maternal mortality is a critical indicator to assess the quality of services provided by a health care system. The standard indicator for measuring it is the Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR), defined as the ratio of the number of maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. Globally there has been decline in MMR, in India too this is declining steadily due to the additional efforts and resources put under NHM for improving health care. There is a need to further accelerate this decline for achieving our national and international goals and targets under them.

It is well known that complications during pregnancy and child birth can occur at any point of time, and it is important to ensure that readiness in terms of infrastructure, HR, equipment etc. for timely management of complications are available at all the basic and emergency obstetric care health facilities. If such complications are not managed on time they can become fatal. The Maternal Death Review guidelines launched by Government of India is a tool available with health managers and policy makers at various levels to critically look at health system performance, identify gaps and initiate corrective steps through convergent action. A major limitation of the MDR process is that the health professionals and other stakeholders involved in the service delivery fear that the great misfortune that has befallen on the pregnant mother puts the blame squarely on their shoulders, and they look at the MDR process with great suspicion as if it is a mechanism to expose them to public scrutiny and outrage. Moreover, the mother who interacted with the system was not available to share her experience. The review that captures the experiences of those pregnant women who suffered complications during pregnancy but survived a major fatality due to timely intervention provides a lot of learning opportunities, which is available more easily due to the availability of the mother as well as the willingness of health professionals who are eager to share their ‘success’ stories. There are various advantages of doing Maternal Near Miss-Review (MNM-R) (See Box 1). Investigating such cases of life threatening obstetric morbidity or Maternal Near Miss would help bringing further improvements to the programme.

Box. 1 Advantages of investigating near miss events

● Near miss cases are more common than maternal deaths

● The major reasons and causes are the same for both MNM and MDR, so review of MNM cases is likely to yield valuable information regarding severe morbidity, which could lead to death of the mother, if not intervened properly and in time.

● Investigating the instances of severe morbidity may be less threatening to providers because the woman survived

● One can learn from the women themselves since they survived and are available for interview about the care they received

● All near misses should be interpreted as free lessons and opportunities to improve the quality of service provision

Purpose of the document

The operational guidelines is designed for use by program managers at different levels of public health system to assist them in undertaking systematic MNM-R and use this information to bring health system improvements aimed at reduction of maternal morbidity and mortality.

● To identify the technical and non-technical causes of MNM

● To identify the health system response to maternal emergencies

● To identify the gaps and contextualise corrective measures to be taken in the health care system

● To provide regular feedback and response needed to achieve the goals

● Identify best practices

INTRODUCTION

Page 17: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 201416

What is Maternal Near Miss (MNM)?

A Woman Who Survives Life Threatening Conditions during Pregnancy, Abortion, and Childbirth or within 42 Days of Pregnancy Termination, irrespective of Receiving Emergency Medical/Surgical Interventions, is called Maternal Near Miss.

PROCESS of MNM-R

The process of MNM-R involes ;

a) Notification (MO/HOD-if case meets inclusion criteria)

b) Data Transmission (Institution to district to state )

c) Review (Institutional & district level)

d) Analysis & Feedback for initiating necessary action.

Once the MNM is confirmed using the tool given in the guideline for diagnosing MNM, the MO/HOD of OBG-

GYN notifies it to the FNO within 24 hours. There upon FBMNM-R form is filled by MO/HOD with support

from FNO and submitted to district within a week. A copy of the same is kept with the institution for records,

The Medical Superintendent with support from FNO and taking inputs from HOD/MO of the department

will review the case. In the monthly review meeting the MNM-R committee members will be invited. The

review reports will be sent to the district for further action. A snap shot of the process is given in the flow

chart below;

DIaGNOSING MNM

Inclusion Criteria:

Critically ill pregnant, labouring, post-partum and post-abortal women admitted to notified health institutions.

Criteria for identifying and notifying the MNM case:

Whenever any pregnant woman comes to the health facility in a critical condition, she needs to be given

urgent medical treatment. However prior to the discharge of such cases, there is a need to identify whether

the case falls under the category of Maternal Near Miss. For identification of an MNM case the following

criteria (minimum three from each category) must be met with:

1) Clinical findings (either symptoms or signs),

2) Investigations

3) Interventions

Or

Any single criteria which signifies cardio respiratory collapse (indicated by a heart symbol)

The clinical findings, investigations and interventions have been put under three broad categories

(annexure 2)

1) Pregnancy specific obstetric and medical disorders,

2) Pre-existing disorders aggravated during pregnancy,

3) Accidental / Incidental disorders in pregnancy.

These broader categories have further been segregated under different clinical situations like haemorrhage,

sepsis, hypertension etc. So it is important for the MO in-charge of the case to carefully see criteria for

identification of MNM Case (annexure-2) and scrutinise the suspected MNM case. A snap shot of the

process involved in diagnosing and notifying MNM - R is given in the flow chart below;

Page 19: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Chart 2. Diagnosing and Notifying MNM-R

Case satisfies MNM-R Inclusion Criteria

Criteria for identifying and classifying MNM-R

Clinical findings / Investigations / Interventions OR any single criteria that indicates cardio respiratory

collapse

Categorize based on;

1) Pregnancy specific obstetric and medical disorders,

2) Pre-existing disorders aggravated during pregnancy,

3) Accidental / Incidental disorders in pregnancy.

Identify adverse events in each category

For each adverse event elaborate possible disorders/ conditions or Complications

The results of investigations which make women fall under MNM category are identified

The interventions that saved the mother is recorded

MNM-R TOOLS

There are two formats in which the data need to be entered –

1. Facility based Maternal Near Miss Review (FBMNM-R ) form – annexure 1

2. MNM-R case register – details of columns to be made in the register – annexure 3

# annexure 2 illustrates the criteria for diagnosing the MNM

Investigating severe maternal morbidity (near-miss) would aim to document the frequency and nature of

maternal near-miss at hospital level and to evaluate the level of care at maternal life-saving emergency

services. This will also provide the gaps for corrective actions to be taken at various levels.

Page 20: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 2014 19

Implementation plan of MNM-R

In the initial phase the MNM-R will be implemented in selected well performing medical colleges or tertiary

centres. Once the implementation of Maternal Near Miss at Medical Colleges is successfully established, then

States can decide to extend it to District hospitals/other FRUs.

MNM-R is complementary to MDR and purpose of MNM-R is to identify the gaps in service delivery at the

earliest which will ultimately help in preventing maternal morbidity and mortality.

In order to initiate MNM-R in a State the following steps have to be undertaken;

● A G.O. /policy decision on Implementation of the program by the State

● Notification of institutions to conduct MNM-R

● Provision of adequate budget and timely release to the notified institute

● Sensitization of State Program Officers

● Training of Medical College faculty and staff

● Printing of different formats

The committees under MNM-R

The MDR committee constituted at district and institutional level for review of maternal deaths will also

conduct the review of MNM cases.

The committees;

● Review MNM cases and share the findings for corrective action with all the concerned departments

● Make recommendations - to initiate actions related to infrastructural strengthening, to augment

human resource availability, to strengthen protocols and competence of staff, to ensure adequate

Supplies and Equipment

● Analysis & Feedback - A statement of detected gaps, identified best practices, corrective measures to

be taken should be sent to state nodal officer for state review meeting

The committees are ;

1. Facility Based Maternal Death/ Near Miss Review Committee (FBMNM-R Committee)

2. District level CS/CMO Maternal death/ Near Miss Review Committee (DBMNM-R Committee)

The review will focus on

a) Circumstances under which the woman received care

b) Cause of maternal near miss

c) Steps that are required to prevent such morbidities in future

The State Task Force for MDR committee will also support implementation of MNM-R at the state level.

Maternal Health division of MoHFW with support from NHSRC will provide monitoring support to all the

states.

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 201420

Roles and Responsibilities of Nodal Officers

Implementation of MNM-R requires coordinated effort of various nodal officers designated at various levels

to support and monitor the processes to ensure the quality of data collected, analysed and feedback shared

for concerted action at the various levels.

State Nodal Officer (SNO)

● Identifying the level and names of the health facility (Initially Medical Colleges) where program will

be implemented

● Collect relevant data on MNM cases district-wise/institution-wise and carry out detailed analysis

● Ensuring availability of different formats and other requisite tools before initiation of program

● Priority action and timeline for the gaps identified under MNM and periodic review of progress

● Nominate the district nodal officers

● Provision of adequate budget and timely release to the implementing institute.

● Ensure the trainings at various levels

● Facilitate the preparation of an annual MNM-R report for the state and organize a dissemination

meeting to sensitize the various service providers and managers. The annual report may contain

typical maternal death case studies which may be used during the training of medical and paramedical

functionaries.

● To make sure that the budgetary requirement of MNM-R reflects either in the state/ NHM PIP

District Nodal Officer (DNO)

District RCH Officer can be designated as the District Nodal Officer.

relevant individuals)

● Forwarding the MNM-R tool with case sheet to district CMO/CIVIL SURGEON within a week

● Taking local corrective actions as per MNM-R findings

Page 22: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 2014 21

Facility Nodal Officer (FNO)

● Ensuring all cases of MNM are reported

● Preparing meeting calendar and calling the committee on a designated day and date

● Review of MNM cases in MDR committee

● Send the report and its findings to district CMHO/ Civil Surgeon

● Attend MDR/ MNM review meetings at district

HOD Obstetrics / Duty Medical Officer

● Identify MNM as per the indicated criteria and record in the relevant register

● Complete FBMNM-R form and send to the MNM-R Nodal officer of the facility within 48 hours of

patients discharge

● ENSURING NO CHANGES ARE MADE ON THE CASE SHEET

● To ensure MNM-R formats are filled in before discharge of the case

Training Plan

The basic premise of the training plan is that all personnel directly involved with the MNM-R process get

trained and all other officers whose cooperation is required in the smooth conduct of review (as well as

follow up actions based on recommendations of the MNM-R Committees) get oriented in the concept and

process of MNM-R.

A one day sensitization cum training of trainers for the states will be conducted at the national level by the

National Health System Resource Centre (NHSRC) under the guidance of MH division of Ministry of Health

and Family Welfare.

At the state level a half day sensitization meeting involving all convergent departments and state nodal

officers from the directorate, SIHFW, SHS will be held. A one day training at the state level will invite the

faculty (FNO, HOD, MS etc.) of the notified institutions along with District officers.

District orientation could be undertaken involving convergent departments.

At the institution level MOs of all departments in the facility will sensitized in a half-day session, followed by

one day training of the faculty directly involved in the MNM-R.

The training schedule depicting the cascade of trainings undertaken at State, District and Institutional level

is given below;

Monitoring and Evaluation

While a biological complication is assigned as a cause of MNM, in fact most MNM cases result from a chain of

events that includes many social, cultural and medical factors. The tools for MNM-R have been developed with

the objective of identifying gaps and reasons for severe maternal morbidities which could also lead to maternal

deaths so that corrective actions to fill such gaps can be taken for improving service delivery. Private sector

providers may also find this useful in instituting maternal near miss reviews. The guideline will help program

managers, Medical Superintendents, officer in charges and district program managers who are routinely engaged

in delivery of maternal health interventions in the implementation of this program.

Individual facilities should ensure availability of all the relevant data both in hard and softcopy. Since a large

set of data is captured, analysis of data for surveillance, interventions, corrective actions etc. will be a challenge.

Centralised online software to feed the data, carry out analysis and generate reports for action will be developed

in due course by GOI. The data of individual facilities can be transferred to this portal once this portal is developed.

The Nodal officers will evaluate the important variables and identify the gaps for initiating corrective measure

so as to prevent such morbidities in future. The major outcomes which need to be focussed in are number of

women in a centre reporting with MNM or become MNM, the causes of MNM, referral places and the quality of

care given, antenatal care and its quality, identified complications in pregnancy, labour care and complications in

delivery, iatrogenic injuries, requirement of blood & its availability, interventions needed to save the women, good

practices & reasons in terms of delay 1, 2 or 3

Page 24: MATERNAL NEAR MISS REVIEW

Maternal Near Miss Review Operational Guidelines - December - 2014 23

Indicators for Monitoring

1. Total Number of MNM cases in the reporting month

2. MNM cases reviewed by CMHO

3. Out of total MNM cases indicate the number against following complication:

a. PPH

b. Eclampsia

c. Anemia

d. Septic Abortion

e. others

4. Type of gaps identified after review

5. Status of corrective action taken for the gaps identified

Key points to remember

● The findings from MNM-R should not be utilized for taking punitive action against service providers.

● Any single criteria which signifies cardio respiratory collapse, makes a case of MNM

● The committee on MDR will perform functions of MNM-R committee

● Training budget should be proposed in the State PIP

* The state need to adjust the training norms as per the training load of the district and state.

# Support is provided to conduct of CDR meetings at various levels (district committee, facility committee etc.). The same funds can be utilized for conduct of MNM-R meetings.

## for sensitization meetings, cost of tea/snacks plus incidental expenses(photocopying, printing, telephone, Fax etc.) @3000/- may be booked. Since only local people are involved, no TA/DA is required except cost of outstation resource persons, which needs to be separately budgeted in PIP.
