Amniotic fluid embolism occurs rapidly in clinical practice, and the consequences are very serious, generally posing a risk of death. Amniotic fluid embolism can cause damage to organs throughout the body, with significant impacts on the heart and kidneys. However, the causes of this condition are different. Is there any compensation for amniotic fluid embolism?
Firstly, whether the hospital is at fault needs to be determined through medical malpractice assessment. If it is due to medical malpractice on the part of the hospital, it can be appealed to relevant departments for compensation. But there are many reasons that can cause this situation, such as high intra-abdominal pressure, sinus opening, or rupture of membranes, as well as some elderly mothers.
Secondly, most pregnant women with amniotic fluid embolism will experience some reactions in the early stages, such as shivering, inner restlessness, or severe coughing, even vomiting and other symptoms. When the amount of amniotic fluid invasion is small, the symptoms are relatively mild and can improve on their own without treatment. If the situation is severe, medical assistance is needed.
Regular prenatal check ups during pregnancy are very necessary. B-ultrasound can be used to check for the presence of placenta previa, and timely measures can be taken to detect and treat the problem early, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of this condition. Moreover, elderly mothers or women with uterine diseases are susceptible populations and need to be taken seriously.
