Timely management of obstetric emergencies is critical in ensuring maternal and neonatal survival. Postpartum hemorrhage remains a leading cause of maternal mortality, necessitating prompt intervention through uterotonics, fluid resuscitation, and surgical procedures when necessary. Emergency cesarean sections are performed for complications such as fetal distress, placental abruption, or obstructed labor, with outcomes largely dependent on early recognition and rapid response. Maternal sepsis, often resulting from infections during pregnancy or childbirth, requires vigilant monitoring, antibiotic therapy, and strict infection control measures to prevent life-threatening complications.

Obstetric trauma, including uterine rupture and perineal injuries, demands specialized surgical management to minimize long-term reproductive consequences. Neonatal resuscitation plays a vital role in immediate newborn care, ensuring optimal oxygenation and stabilization in cases of birth asphyxia or preterm delivery. Additionally, psychological support following pregnancy loss is essential in addressing the emotional impact on parents, emphasizing the importance of mental health care in maternal well-being. Advances in obstetric medicine continue to improve emergency response protocols, reducing maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
