A high-risk pregnancy is when a woman has one or more things that
raise her, or her baby’s, chances of experiencing health problems
or preterm delivery. These risks may be due to factors in the
pregnancy itself, or they may stem from pre-existing maternal
medical conditions. Part of the Clinical Focus series, this book is
a concise guide to the management of high-risk pregnancy for
clinicians and trainees. Divided into 18 chapters, the text begins
with an overview of prenatal and natal screening, and medications.
The following sections cover different endocrine and systemic
diseases including glucose intolerance, thyroid disorders, cardiac
diseases, renal disorders, respiratory diseases, and more. The book
concludes with discussion on general aspects such as multiple
pregnancy, bleeding, and infections. Â The text is enhanced
by images and figures to assist learning and also includes a sample
exam paper.
