Acute Respiratory Failure in Pregnancy

Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Respiratory failure may affect up to 1 in 500 pregnancies, due to pregnancy-specific conditions, conditions aggravated by the pregnant state, or other causes. Management during pregnancy is influenced by altered maternal physiology, and the presence of a fetus influencing imaging, and drug therapy choices. Few studies have addressed the approach to invasive mechanical ventilatory management in pregnancy. Hypoxemia is likely harmful to the fetus, but precise targets are unknown. Hypocapnia reduces uteroplacental circulation, and some degree of hypercapnia may be tolerated in pregnancy. Delivery of the fetus may be considered to improve maternal respiratory status but improvement does not always occur.
