Abstract

(Anesth Analg. 2020;130:436–444) As births using assisted reproductive technology increase, the maternal and neonatal safety of these pregnancies continues to be of concern. There are established associations between assisted reproductive technology pregnancies and a number of adverse outcomes, including gestational diabetes, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, obstetric hemorrhage, abnormal placentation, and cesarean delivery. There is a lack of studies examining the risk of intensive care unit (ICU) admission in women using assisted reproductive technology. This study compared parturients who conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF) and those who did not in terms of etiology and course of ICU admission, particularly focusing on postpartum hemorrhage.
