Abstract

Childbirth is a major life event for women and their families. However, in a small proportion, severe and sometimes life-threatening complications occur during pregnancy. Such critically ill women should receive the same standard of care for both their pregnancy-related and critical care needs, delivered by professionals with the same level of competences irrespective of whether these are provided in a maternity or general critical care setting [1].
