AbstractIn developed countries, peripartum hemorrhage, thromboembolic events and hypertensive pregnancy disorders are the most frequent complications in pregnancy. They pose a significant challenge for the interdisciplinary team of gynecology and anesthesiology. Untreated, these pregnancy-related complications result in a fulminant course. Close consultation between the specialist departments and knowledge of the area of responsibility are essential. In the case of acute bleeding the anesthesiologist is responsible for maintaining adequate circulatory conditions and management of hemostasis. Thromboembolic events require immediate anticoagulation and focused diagnostics. Thereby, both the fetal and the maternal risks must be weighed up. The hypertensive diseases in pregnancy have a very high risk of complications. In addition to symptomatic treatment in the intensive care unit, the optimal time of delivery must be determined by an interdisciplinary consensus. This is the only causal treatment option possible.© 2021. Springer Medizin Verlag GmbH, ein Teil von Springer Nature.
