Abstract
Introduction : Maternal death in Indonesia was still high therefore efforts was needed to suppress
this maternal mortality rate.
Objective : To determine risk factors of maternal mortality and morbidity.
Methods : This was a descriptive study using cross sectional design with study sample including all
laboring mother in Obstetric Department of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang from December
2019 to February 2020 period. Sample were collected using total sampling technique with total of
119 samples included in this study. Data was collected from patients’ medical record, including age,
gestational age, gravidity, history of labor, diagnosis, method of delivery, maternal condition, and
neonates condition at birth.
Results : Mean of age was 30.6 ± 5.4 years, mean of maternal age was 36.1 ± 3.8 weeks, about 77
patients (64.7%) were multipara, 49 patients (41.2%) had history of spontaneous labor, most frequent
diagnosis were severe preeclampsia in 20 patients (16.8%), impending eclampsia in 9 patients
(7.6%), history of cesarean section 8 patients (6.7%), twin pregnancy 7 patients (5.9%), and
pregnancy with positive HBsAg in 7 patients (5,9%). Total 32 patients (26.9%) were referred patients
from various general hospital in West Sumatra. A total of 105 patients (88.2%) had cesarean section.
Mean birth weight of neonates was 2363.4 ± 964.7 gram, mean birth length was 44.1 ± 5.9 cm, mean
apgar score in the first 1 minutes was 5,9 ± 2,2, and mean apgar score in the first 5 minutes 7.4 ± 2.3.
During 3 months of study, total maternal deaths were found in 3 patients due to complicated
eclampsia, severe preeclampsia, and maternal congenital heart disease, while neonatal death was
found in 8 babies, where 6 (75%) had IUFD, and 2 (25%) had very low birth weight dying in the first
24 hours of life due to respiratory failure.
Conclusion : Most of labored mother were multiparas with history of spontaneous birth, and mostly
diagnosed as severe preeclampsia with method of delivery of cesarean section, and maternal and
neonatal death were still occurred.

Maternal death is one of indicators to assess the success of the effort to increase maternal
wellbeing and community health status1. Maternal mortality rate globally in 2015 was 216
per 100.000 births. This was far from target maternal mortality rate based on Millennium
Development Goals (MDG’s) 5 that is reduction of maternal mortality rate in 2015 as much
as 3⁄4 of maternal mortality in 1990.2,3 Maternal mortality rate in Indonesia at 1990 – 2015
tend to decrease from 390 to 305 per 100.000 live births. Yet this was still far from target to
be achieved in Indonesia in 2015, that is 102 per 100.000 live births. 2
Millennium Development Goals had ended in 2015 and World Health Organization
(WHO) had set new agenda for development goals from MDG’s to SDG’s. Target to be
achieved in an attempt to reduce maternal mortality rate was 70 per 100.000 live births in
2030. Based on maternal mortality rate in Indonesia in 2015 that was 305 per 100.000 live
births, Indonesia needs endeavour to achieve SDG’s.4,5
Delay in the decision making to refer pregnant mother to referral hospital due to lack
of awareness to warning sign was one contributing factor to maternal mortality rate. 6
Furthermore, post labor condition was the dominant cause of maternal mortality, such as
bleeding (28%), infection (11%), puerperal complication (8%), prolonged labor (5%),
abortion (5%), trauma (5%), emboli (5%), and others.6 Therefore, optimization of labor
management is important to be done.

METHODS
This was a descriptive study using cross sectional design with study sample including all
laboring mother in Obstetric Department of Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang from
December 2019 to February 2020 period. Sample were collected using total sampling
technique with total of 119 samples included in this study. Data was collected from patients’
medical record, including age, gestational age, gravidity, history of labor, diagnosis, method
of delivery, maternal condition, and newborn condition at birth. Data analysis was done
using univariate analysis by computer software.

DISCUSSION
This study result found that mean age of laboring mother were 30.6 ± 5.4 years, with mean
gestational age of 36.1 ± 3,8 weeks, more than half of respondents were multiparas, with
history of spontaneous birth, and most frequent diagnosis of severe preeclampsia, referral
origin mostly found from general hospital, frequent method of delivery was cesarean
section, and maternal death was found in 3 (2.5%) patients. Study result by Astuti et al
(2017) in Hasan Sadikin General Hospital found that risk factors of maternal death were due
to pregnancy complication, labor complication, puerperal complication, maternal age,
comorbidities, AND, and living area. While in this study, maternal cause of death were
severe preeclampsia, complicated preeclampsia, and congenital heart disease.7,18
Ramli et al (2018) studying 9 districts in Aceh found that maternal cause of death were
bleeding (59.7%), eclampsia (25.5%), and preeclampsia (6.3%).8 Study by Nair et al (2017)
described risk of maternal death in England was 9 times greater in women with
comorbidities and women with anemia during pregnancy had 3 times greater risk.
Inadequate ANC visits and history of complicated pregnancy is associated significantly with
increased maternal death risk.9
Bauserman et al (2015) described factors related to maternal death 6 weeks after
delivery were maternal level of education, gravidity, antenatal visit with highest risk was
found in mother without any ANC visit during pregnancy, bleeding, hypertension in
pregnancy, and mortality risk was higher in cesarean section.10 Study in India by Bathia et al
(2018) found that direct cause of maternal death were severe preeclampsia and eclampsia
(25.9%), sepsis (22.2%), and bleeding (20.4%). While indirect cause were anemia (79.6%),
heart disease in pregnancy (9.3%), and jaundice in pregnancy (9.3%). This study also found
that delayed care from referral hospital was also the most frequent cause of maternal
death.11
Study by Evance et al (2013) showed that obstetric risk factors of maternal death in
Tanzania were bleeding (28%), eclampsia (19%), and other unknown direct cause. While

non-obstetric cause were AIDS (16%), malaria (12%), and other unknown cause. This
showed that HIV/AIDS had contributed considerably in maternal death.12
Previous study result in Brebes, Central Java in 2016 found that most frequent direct
cause of death were preeclampsia/eclampsia (33.3%), uterine atony (16.7%), and postnatal
infection (7.4%). While indirect cause of death was heart disease (12.9%). Most case of
maternal death was found in hospital. This study also found that maternal level of
education, maternal occupation, antenatal visits, birth attendant, and obstetric complication
contribute to maternal death.13
Mahmood et al (2018) said that factors of maternal death in Kutai District,
Kartanegara was frequently found in age group of 30-35 years (30%), level of education of
elementary school (53%), housewives (86%), received national health insurance (66.6%),
and house distance to health care was10-20 minutes (46%). Direct cause of death was
preeclampsia/eclampsia and also affected by other indirect factors.14
In this study, total neonatal death was 8 babies with causes of death of IUFD and very
low birth weight. Study by Halim et al (2017) found that neonatal cause of death were
asphyxia (43%), premature birth (22%), and sepsis (5.2%). Asphyxia was known as the most
frequent cause of neonatal death in the first 24 hours after delivery.15 Study by Listiani et al
(2018) concluded that direct cause of neonatal death were asphyxia, premature birth, and
infection. While indirect cause of neonatal death were low birth weight, family income
affecting birth weight, and maternal level of education.16,19
Policy maker should review main cause of neonatal death, where there were
differences compared to caused death in older children. Neonatal death is commonly
caused by premature birth, intrapartum complication, and infection (sepsis, meningitis, and
pneumonia). WHO and Maternal and Child Epidemiology Estimation Group predicted that
35% of all neonatal death in 2017 was related to premature birth complication, 24% related
to delivery, 14% related to sepsis or meningitis, and 11% related to congenital anomaly.17,20

CONCLUSION
Most of labor mother were multiparas with history of spontaneous birth, and mostly
diagnosed as severe preeclampsia with method of delivery of cesarean section, and
maternal and neonatal death were still occurred.
