“…The perinatal mortality rate among obstetric ICU admissions ranges from 1.2% to 48.8%. 31 If ACS develops during pregnancy, the benefits of continuing pregnancy must be carefully balanced against the risks of clinical deterioration to the mother and fetus. A low threshold for delivery is warranted while carefully monitoring for signs of compromised uteroplacental perfusion.…”

Normal pregnancy leads to a state of chronically increased intra‐abdominal pressure. Obstetric and non‐obstetric conditions may increase intra‐abdominal pressure further, causing intra‐abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome, which leads to maternal organ dysfunction and a compromised fetal state. Limited medical literature exists to guide treatment of pregnant women with these conditions. In this state‐of‐the‐art review, we propose a diagnostic and treatment algorithm for the management of peripartum intra‐abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome, informed by newly available studies.
