Most of these problems are related to the pregnant woman and her fetus. The process of delivery in majority of cases takes place normally and without need to medical intervention, but in certain cases, a physician or midwife can prevent unwanted events for mother and baby. Gynecological emergent cases are far less common than obstetrics ones. In critical situations where the mother and baby are at risk of death, diversion or immediately landing may become necessary. In general, Gynecological and Obstetric emergencies rarely happen during flight but physicians, nurses or any other medical specialist must answer in these cases. M3 ER -
