Maternal near-miss and mortality associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remote from term: a multicenter observational study in Ghana

Maternal near miss and maternal and perinatal mortalities were common in women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remote from term in referral hospitals in Ghana. Providing appropriate patient-centered and multidisciplinary quality care for these women is crucial in improving pregnancy outcomes. Context-tailored interventions should be considered in the clinical management of complications associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in resource-limited settings. Further research on interventions to improve timely referral and reduce in-hospital delays in care provision is recommended to facilitate emergency care services for women with hypertensive emergencies.
