Sepsis is still the main cause of maternal death, accounting for 11% of maternal deaths; Early identification of high risk factors of sepsis and early intervention can improve the prognosis of pregnant women with sepsis. At present, there is no epidemiological investigation report on sepsis in ICU in China. A total of 160 cases of maternal sepsis with ICU admission in any trimester of pregnancy or within 42 days of delivery were reviewed between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2019. The demographic data including age and gestational age, mode of delivery, the maximal SOFA score, invasive operation before sepsis, sepsis focuses, intervention, microbial culture results, body temperature and blood routine were reviewed to investigate the incidence and mortality of maternal sepsis in intensive care unit, as well as the incidence of multidrug-resistant bacteria and the risk factors of multidrug resistance.
