ISSSTE obstetric care and facility challenges

Overview

The Instituto de Seguridad y Servicios Sociales de los Trabajadores del Estado (ISSSTE) has implemented the ‘Código Oro’ (Gold Code) protocol to address critical obstetric emergencies. This system mobilizes multidisciplinary Obstetric Immediate Response Teams (ERIO) to manage life-threatening complications such as hemorrhage, preeclampsia, and sepsis, aiming to reduce maternal and perinatal mortality.

Despite these protocols, reports indicate significant infrastructure deficiencies in certain regions. In Hermosillo, Sonora, the Dr. Fernando Ocaranza hospital reportedly lacks a functioning labor and delivery unit, operating rooms, and a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (UCIN). Such shortages have resulted in patients being forced to give birth in emergency rooms amidst inadequate surgical supplies and infection risks.
