Abstract
Background: Saving Mother Score for early identification of sick mothers. Scoring application to detect & weigh the severity of sickness in intranatal mothers. A comprehensive scoring system can segregate the intranatal mothers into Normal, Need observation, Sick case. Recognize the sick cases help in timely referral to a higher center. This can be contribute to reduction of maternal morbidity & mortality at the hospital and community level. Thus the investigator intended to conduct the study with to assess the implementation and efficacy of Saving Mother Score (SMS) in predicting maternal and fetal outcome among the intranatal mothers admitted at Labour room of Pravara Rural Hospital, Loni (Bk).
Material and Method: A Non-experimental; descriptive study design with cross sectional approach was used in Pravara Rural Hospital Loni Bk. A total of 100 intranatal mothers were selected with help of non-randomized purposive sampling technique, to assess the implementation and efficacy of saving mother score to better outcome of maternal and fetal.
Results: Finding revealed that the overall mean score of maternal outcome of intranatal mothers was (6.19±3.22) and fetal outcome was (2.15±1.19) which interprets the “Need observation” respectively. There was significant association was found between maternal outcome & the variables like Educational Qualification, Weight of mothers and number of ANC Visit; similarly significant association was found between Neonatal outcome and the variables like Age, educational qualification, type of family, parity of mothers, hemoglobin level and number of ANC Visit. There was positive weak relationship (r 0.024) was found between the maternal outcome and neonatal outcome with their selected intranatal mothers.
Conclusion: The overall mean score of maternal outcome and fetal outcome which interprets which interprets intranatal mothers were “needs of observation” respectively. The findings highlighted that the SMS is effective to identify the high risk mothers during ANC period.
