AbstractAlthough cardiac arrest in pregnancy is rare, all members of the healthcare team who care for pregnant women should be aware of the maternal adaptations of pregnancy. Also, more women with preexisting medical conditions are attempting pregnancy. Perinatal nurses, especially those practicing in level III (high-risk) perinatal centers should be trained in dysrhythmia recognition and ACLS protocols. Rapid intervention sometimes can save two lives.
