Obstetrical Emergencies: A Comprehensive Review On Diagnosis, Prevention And Management

Abstract

Life-threatening medical issues that arise during pregnancy, labour, or delivery are known as obstetric crisis. The health of the mother and the unborn fetus may be at risk due to a variety of pregnancy-related diseases and conditions. Obstetrical crisis can occur both during active labor and after delivery (postpartum). All pregnancies have some risk, even though the great majority of pregnancies and deliveries go smoothly. While pregnancy can be exciting and joyful, it can also cause worry and anxiety. Low birth weight, stillbirth, and preterm birth are all harmful pregnancy outcomes that contribute to infant sickness, death, and long-term physical and mental health issues.
