    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Surgical Nursing
    • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

    Background:

    • Pregnancy introduces unique physiological changes that complicate nonobstetric surgical conditions.
    • Managing surgical disease in pregnant patients requires specialized nursing knowledge.
    • The impact of surgery on both mother and fetus necessitates careful consideration.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinical challenges nurses face when managing pregnant patients undergoing nonobstetric surgery.
    • To elucidate the impact of surgery on maternal and fetal well-being.
    • To present information on optimizing nursing interventions by considering the interplay between pregnancy physiology and surgical processes.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review focusing on physiological changes during pregnancy.
    • Analysis of surgical disease implications in pregnant patients.
    • Synthesis of nursing interventions for improved surgical outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Pregnancy significantly alters physiological parameters, affecting surgical risk and management.
    • Surgical interventions during pregnancy carry inherent risks to both mother and fetus.
    • Effective nursing care integrates knowledge of pregnancy adaptations and surgical demands.

    Conclusions:

    • Nurses require specialized knowledge to manage pregnant patients undergoing nonobstetric surgery.
    • Understanding the physiological adaptations of pregnancy is crucial for safe surgical care.
    • Tailored nursing interventions can mitigate risks and improve outcomes for mother and fetus.
