Maternal newborn nurses are trained to identify and manage various complications, such as:
- Pre-eclampsia: High blood pressure during pregnancy that can lead to severe complications if not managed properly. - Gestational Diabetes: A form of diabetes that develops during pregnancy and requires careful monitoring of blood sugar levels. - Preterm Labor: Labor that begins before 37 weeks of pregnancy, which necessitates specialized care to ensure the health of the preterm baby. - Postpartum Hemorrhage: Excessive bleeding after childbirth, which can be life-threatening if not promptly addressed.
