AbstractThe implementation of patient blood management (PBM) is increasingly becoming standard in operative medicine. Recently, interest has also been shown for the vulnerable collective of pregnant women and neonates. As the information regarding anesthesiological procedures for pregnant women and the peripartum period including an informed consent process should be carried out long before childbirth, this provides a good possibility in this connection to incorporate PBM. An anesthesiological risk estimation as well as the diagnostic workup and treatment of potential anemia should be carried out during the pregnancy. Furthermore, loss of blood in anticipation of bleeding complications should be reduced by interdisciplinary preventive measures and an individually coordinated postpartum care should be organized. This results in an early diagnosis of anemia or iron deficiency with subsequent treatment also postpartum, analogous to the prepartum period.© 2022.
