Abstract

Maternal sepsis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with a significant impact in resource-limited settings like India. The Sepsis in Obstetrics Score (SOS) has been validated as an effective tool to predict intensive care needs in obstetric sepsis. This prospective observational study, conducted at Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal, from January 2021 to June 2022, included 225 antenatal and postnatal women meeting two or more Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) criteria. The study found that higher SOS scores were associated with worse maternal and fetal outcomes, including increased maternal mortality and fetal complications like stillbirth. The SOS score proves to be a useful tool for early identification of high-risk obstetric patients, particularly in low-resource settings.
