This document discusses trauma during pregnancy, including: 1) Trauma affects 1 in 12 pregnancies and is a leading cause of nonobstetric death, though 90% of injuries are minor. 2) Special considerations in the assessment and management of pregnant trauma patients include changes in cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal/genitourinary systems as well as injury patterns. 3) The goals in treating pregnant trauma patients are to first stabilize the mother to save the fetus, as maternal demise will lead to fetal demise in most cases. A multidisciplinary approach between trauma and obstetrics teams is important.
