Abstract

Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is an uncommon but severe complication of pregnancy or during the first few weeks after giving birth. Our intention was to thoroughly analyze the information available to its management methods. Significant bleeding of mother survival and early deliveries in fetal survivals were having hemorrhage and were having key outcomes. We found 127 severe PE cases that have had at least one form of treatment (at least 83% big; 23% with cardiac arrest). The 83 women who received thrombolysis had a 94% (95%) survival rate. Cardiac arrest in pregnancy is uncommon, although maintaining current competency can be challenging. While maternal mortality rates have decreased globally over the past 25 years, they have increased in the United States. The intricacy of the maternal mortality issue is a result of a number of clinical and socioeconomic problems such as unequal healthcare access, racial and ethnic disparities, maternal comorbidities, and bias in epidemiologic ascertainment. The importance of doctors being prepared to react to a potential maternal cardiac arrest in any situation where they are providing treatment for pregnant women is highlighted by the rise in maternal mortality. For the treatment of maternal cardiac arrest, an interdisciplinary team with expertise in both the maternal resuscitation procedure and the physiological changes that take place during pregnancy is necessary. Additionally offered are basic and advanced cardiac life support protocols. Techniques to remove obstacles like aortocaval compression that could impair the effectiveness of resuscitation should be used.
