AB  - Trauma  remains  the  leading  cause  of  nonobstetric  morbidity  and  mortality  in  pregnant  women.1  The  severity  of  maternal  injuries  may  be  a  poor  predictor  of  fetal  distress  and  outcome  after  a  traumatic  event  (even  minor  ones).  Trauma  during  pregnancy  is  associated  with  an  increased  risk  of  preterm  labor,  placental  abruption,  fetomaternal  hemorrhage,  and  pregnancy  loss.  Achieving  successful  outcomes  for  both  mother  and  fetus  requires  a  collaborative  effort  by  the  prehospital  provider,  emergency  physician,  trauma  surgeon,  obstetrician,  and  neonatologist.
