Activity Overview
The landscape of peripartum healthcare has evolved significantly, with more women today presenting with advanced maternal age, obesity, and complex co-morbidities. However, many hospital systems lack dedicated obstetric pharmacists, leaving general clinical pharmacists to manage these increasingly complex cases.
This second webinar in our two-part series aims to equip clinical pharmacists with essential knowledge of obstetric (OB) physiology, common OB emergencies, and available resources. Through case-based learning, experts will provide actionable strategies to enhance care for contemporary OB patients and optimize outcomes in this challenging population.
Accreditation
The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education with Commendation.
Target Audience
This activity was planned to meet the educational needs of pharmacists practicing in care settings that provide generalized obstetric care to patients that may or may not have a dedicated/specialized pharmacist trained in the nuances of the obstetric population.
Learning Objectives
After completing this activity, the learner should be able to:
- Identify physiologic changes unique to obstetric patients that affect medication pharmacodynamics/ pharmacokinetics.
- Discuss complex obstetric conditions, treatment approaches, and management.
- Identify resources related to medication safety for obstetric patients.
