    Area of Science:

    • Trauma care
    • Obstetrics
    • Maternal-fetal medicine

    Background:

    • Active lifestyles increase pregnant women's risk of trauma from accidents and violence.
    • Trauma during pregnancy elevates risks of maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To emphasize the importance of understanding pregnancy physiology for optimal trauma care.
    • To highlight that trauma care priorities for pregnant patients are identical to non-pregnant patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Integrate trauma and obstetric perspectives in patient assessment.
    • Prioritize immediate intervention and stabilization for pregnant trauma patients.

    Main Results:

    • Pregnancy physiology does not restrict resuscitative, diagnostic, or pharmacologic treatments.

  • Maternal survival is paramount for fetal survival.

    • Conclusions:

    • Optimal fetal outcomes depend on prompt maternal intervention and stabilization.
    • Standard trauma care protocols are applicable to pregnant patients without modification.
