We may only encounter pregnant women occasionally and may not have a working knowledge of either the dynamic physiology of pregnancy or the effect this has on interpretation of examination findings and laboratory investigations. This may lead to a delay in the timely and appropriate management of the acutely unwell pregnant woman.

This programme was initially designed for trainees in Internal Medicine. It has been re-launched to support the wider multidisciplinary team including ACCS (Acute Care Common Stem), Obstetrics and Anaesthesia and all allied health professionals who encounter pregnant or recently pregnant women in their clinical practice. The programme has been updated to represent current knowledge and guidelines.

These sessions have been developed in partnership with the HEE Maternity Programme.
