This dynamic high-risk OB course outlines ‘all-things” preterm labor, preterm birth, and preterm premature/prelabor rupture of membranes. We’ll discuss preventative approaches to preterm labor, and the important patient education and early interventions as they relate to preterm birth prevention. A thorough discussion of risk factors for both, along with warning signs and symptoms will be outlined throughout. We’ll talk about important tocolytic therapies, including pharmacokinetics, indications, and contraindications, and identify risks and benefits of various management strategies to provide best practices for these high risk obstetric patients and their babies.
