related infections, medical/surgical conditions and acute collapse were much higher and, suggest that medical problems may need more focused attention. The study showed that the WHO near miss audit tool was an effective tool for measuring severe maternal morbidity and quality of care in the Metro West Maternity facilities. Near miss auditing was found to be feasible and ongoing routine audits would be valuable for the Metro West Maternity Services. This would require institutionalization of the Near Miss identification and monitoring systems.
