Worth 2.5 Continuing Education Contact Hours

Differentiating between normal changes that happen during pregnancy and signs of a pregnancy complication can be challenging at times. Broaden your knowledge base and really arm yourself with essential obstetric knowledge to assist in your triage and assessment of obstetric patients. This course will discuss the female reproductive tract in association with conception and pregnancy, identifying key concepts related to gestation and the maternal-fetal circulatory unit. We’ll talk about the anatomic and the physiologic changes a woman will undergo during pregnancy and during the labor and delivery process.
