<p>Join Matt and I as we discuss some of the issues we have been grappling with in our planning for how to manage obstetric patients suspected of or known to have COVID-19.</p>
<ul>
<li>Is pregnancy a risk factor for worse disease severity?</li>
<li>What is the appropriate PPE for women in active labour? </li>
<li>Is active labour an aerosol generating procedure?</li>
<li>What about the use of inhaled (and therefore exhaled) nitrous oxide in these women?</li>
<li>What about the need for emergency or urgent procedures such as caesarean sections or post partum haemorrhage &#8211; how do we get them safely around the hospital?</li>
</ul>
