La prise en charge prénatale permet d'anticiper les complications afin de minimiser les risques au moment de l'accouchement et de la naissance. En Suisse, elle s'organise autour d'une collaboration du réseau libéral et hospitalier avec une hiérarchisation du niveau de risque de la grossesse pour le suivi. La structure de la prise en charge périnatale doit être construite de façon à identifier les risques obligeant les professionnels à sortir de la voie physiologique classique pour une escalade thérapeutique anticipative, appropriée selon les niveaux de risque. Une collaboration efficace autour du couple mère-enfant (ou même de la famille) dépend donc d'une plateforme d'interaction multidisciplinaire privilégiée dans laquelle la communication interprofessionnelle, et particulièrement sage-femme-obstétricien-néonatologue, est essentielle.
Antenatal care : anticipating for future mother and childPrenatal care allows early detection of risks and complications in the pregnant women in an attempt to minimize problems at birth and delivery. In Geneva, prenatal care is organized as a collaboration between private and liberal in-hospital network with a ranking in the pregnancy risk levels to adapt follow-up. The perinatal care structure should be built in a way to identify risks prompting professionals to adapt from the normal physiological care to a therapeutic escalation one appropriated to the detected risk level.Effective inter-professional collaboration around the mother-child dyad (and even the family) depends on a privileged multidisciplinary interaction platform in which, wide inter-professional communication, particularly between midwife-obstetrician-neonatalogist, is essential.
Introduction: Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome is a progressive disorder associated with neurologic, cardiac, neuromuscular, hepatic, metabolic and gastrointestinal dysfunction, including potential anesthetic and obstetrical complications. Increased susceptibility to drugs in patient with MELAS syndrome can be due to drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity and/or decreased elimination. We present here a case of severe neonatal magnesium sulfate toxicity in the context of MELAS syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
