Critical Care Obstetrics, 7th Edition, offers a textbook on managing severe health conditions during pregnancy and childbirth. Designed for working clinical obstetricians and trainees in obstetrics and gynecology, the volume structures clinical responses to acute maternal health complications. Readers gain systemic frameworks for evaluating unstable patients in high-risk environments.
Editor-in-Chief Luis D. Pacheco leads an editorial group comprising Jeffrey P. Phelan, Torre L. Halscott, Leslie A. Moroz, Arthur J. Vaught, Antonio F. Saad, and Amir A. Shamshirsaz. Broadening its clinical scope, this seventh edition incorporates dedicated new chapters addressing ECMO, antibiotics, and pneumonia. The text integrates step-by-step clinical protocols designed to support emergency decision-making and life-saving treatments.
Physicians and resident trainees can utilize these clinical guidelines when navigating complex critical care scenarios. By establishing standardized procedures for life-threatening complications, the book provides practical guidance for acute obstetrical care across intensive care settings.
