Managing Obstetric Emergencies and Trauma Summary

Managing Obstetric Emergencies and Trauma: The MOET Course Manual by Sara Paterson-Brown

Obstetric emergencies are unplanned and often unanticipated. Management requires a clear understanding of the life-saving and damage-limiting treatments that can be implemented.

Managing Obstetric Emergencies and Trauma Reviews

'This book is a concise, well-written, and organized compendium of diagnostic and clinical tools that can be used to assess and manage obstetric emergencies. Improving provider recognition and management of maternal emergencies is of the utmost importance, as maternal mortality remains high, with approximately 330,000 maternal deaths worldwide in 2015 alone. Despite being intended as a course manual, this book is an excellent standalone text and a good resource for perinatal providers both in the United Kingdom and the United States.' J. Bradley Bavaro, Anesthesia and Analgesia
