title: [The dynamics of lethal maternal outcome reasons based on the data of the Baku clinical maternity hospital].
abstract: This work represents the study of dynamics of maternal lethal outcome reasons (MLO) based on the materials of Baku clinical maternity hospital N5 for the period of 10 years. The purpose of the study is to conduct the expert assessment of the prime documentation of 17 MLO cases. While performing a retrospective analysis of the clinical sources the MLO decline for the last 5 years from 0.11% to 0.05% has been registered. In the structure of MLO reasons the obstetric bleeding takes the first place, followed by sepsis, embolism caused by amniotic fluid and gestosis. Some organizational shortcomings, doctors' and obstetrician-gynaecologists' low qualification, irregular observation of the pregnant in maternity welfare centres in order to timely detect main obstetric pathologies, a low number of post-mortem examinations, which in turn do not enable to draw clinical-anatomical parallels, have been detected. The problem of maternal mortality continues to be of medical and social importance and requires dynamic clinical expertise in order to determine the ways of its reduction.
