Abstract:
A goal of reducing the maternal mortality to less than 12/100 000 by 2030 is proposed in China. In order to achieve this goal, the need to promote the development of obstetric critical care medicine becomes evident. This article reviews the development history of Chinese obstetric critical care medicine, highlights the necessity and urgency of establishing treatment centers for critical pregnant women and obstetric intensive care units, and puts forward some thoughts for moving the field forward, including attaching the importance to the individualized treatment of obstetric critical patients and development of obstetric intensive care units.
