AbstractIn the successful management of a pregnant Jehovah's Witness, many issues must be addressed beyond those normally required for routine prenatal care. The clinician who undertakes such care should be well versed in the potential complications related to blood refusal, the antepartum management of anemia, and the intrapartum management of obstetric hemorrhage. Furthermore, these patients should be delivered in a tertiary care center because this increases their options for obtaining alternative management of hemorrhage. A woman who is well informed about her options can then decide exactly what she wants done in the event of a life-threatening obstetrical hemorrhage.
