13 2 extremes: 1- Wishes for Home deliveries. 2- CS on request. The forgotten fact: Little knowledge about severe complications around delivery, neither in Norway, nor in other Western countries. 19/02/2008 Iqbal AL-Zirqi, Rikshospitalet 13

14 Severe maternal morbidity -Life- threatening conditions in mothers who may die, But survive due to access of high quality emergency obstetric care. -Incidence in the West: 0,05-1,2%; Small retrospective studies; No reproducible definition. 19/02/2008 Iqbal AL-Zirqi, Rikshospitalet 14

15 M.O.M.S. Survey B -Mother s Mortality & Severe morbidity Multi-center,multi-country population-based cohort in 9 European countries including Norway cases in deliveries Incidence: 9.5/1000 (6-14.7/1000). 19/02/2008 Iqbal AL-Zirqi, Rikshospitalet 15
