Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Physiology
  • Respiratory Medicine

Context:

  • Pregnancy involves significant physiological adaptations.
  • The respiratory system undergoes notable changes to meet maternal and fetal demands.

Purpose:

  • To survey and discuss the physiological alterations in the respiratory system during pregnancy.
  • To explore metabolic and mechanical changes affecting respiration in pregnant individuals.

Summary:

  • Reviews global literature on respiratory physiology in pregnancy.
  • Discusses metabolic changes driven by increased progesterone and other hormones.
  • Examines altered ventilation mechanics due to diaphragm elevation from uterine growth.

Impact:

  • Provides a comprehensive overview of respiratory system adaptations during pregnancy.
  • Highlights the interplay between hormonal and mechanical factors affecting breathing.
  • Informs clinical understanding and management of respiratory conditions in pregnant patients.
