The level of maternal mortality as an indicator of multidimensional development is closely related to the quality of reproductive health services. Each day approximately three hundred and fifty thousand maternal deaths occur worldwide. In order to reduce maternal mortality rates, a well-equipped health service having a qualified health care team is needed. Health services must include a critical care unit that provides the observation and treatment of obstetric patients. Providing early and effective treatment in the critical care unit is an important approach in order to achieve the best outcomes for both mother and baby. In the literature, critical care is a new concept for obstetric patients. Therefore, studies on this subject in particular are needed. In this article, the importance of obstetric critical care, the obstetric patients admitted to intensive care, and the characteristics of these patients and critical care team are discussed according to the literature.
