New Research - New Name (Anaphylactoid Syndrome of Pregnancy) - New Understanding of the Complex Barrier Between Maternal-Fetal Physiology


Amniotic Fluid Embolism now called Anaphylactoid Syndrome of Pregnancy is a rare, catastrophic event.  For decades, this rare event was believed to be embolic in nature, but contemporary research strongly suggests that its etiology is immunologic.  This new insight into this phenomenon is a result of significant advances in the understanding of the complex barrier between maternal-fetal physiology.

It is important that nurses know the fundamental knowledge needed for early recognition and management of women with Anaphylactoid Syndrome of Pregnancy to decrease the likelihood of maternal death. Armed with new insights into the etiology and pathophysiology of this syndrome, the multidisciplinary health care team can mobilize to intervene and improve patient outcomes during labor.

Register today and on December 13 you'll learn:

  •  About the shift in the classification of this syndrome from an embolic to an immunologic etiology

  • To differentiate the myths of Amniotic Fluid Embolism etiology  from the truths about Anaphylactoid Syndrome of Pregnancy

  • Current research and the differential diagnosis of Anaphylactoid Syndrome of Pregnancy

  • The essential roles of all member of  the multidisciplinary team

  • How to approach reported case studies with  a spirit of inquiry

  • Important  directions for future research
