Journal Title: Revista Información Científica - Year 2018, Vol 97, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: patients need management in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for complications of pregnancy, pathologies not related to pregnancy or underlying diseases that worsen during pregnancy. Likewise, a prior evaluation of the patient with risks is required by the multidisciplinary working group, including the intensivist. In harmony with the prior theme, the Cuban government assumes the challenge of ensuring the quality of maternal and child care. Objective: to characterize the quality of medical care for critical maternal patients in the ICU of the General Teaching Hospital "Dr. Agostinho Neto ", from Guantanamo, during the 2015-2016 biennium. Method: an observational, prospective and longitudinal study was carried out. The universe was made up of 202 patients admitted to the study period. The study of the quality variable of the process of medical attention to the maternal patient (PAMM) was based on the methodology of Ramos Dominguez. We have explored criteria about the structure, process and results of this medical care. Results: the quality of the attention to the serious maternal ones was evaluated as satisfactory, since the indicators of the structure, indicators of its dynamics as well as those related to the process studied were satisfactory. Conclusions: the quality of the process of medical attention to the maternal patient was satisfactory, although it is necessary to continue the management to ensure the material requirements in order to achieve excellence.
