Investigating fracture management in pregnant individuals, indicating essential safety precautions for maternal and fetal health.
» Pregnancy alters calcium balance, hormone regulation, and mechanical loading, which together lowers bone mineral density and increases risk of fractures. » Trauma during pregnancy carries significant maternal and fetal risk as low-mechanism injuries can trigger placental abruption, preterm labor, and fetal loss. » Imaging, anesthesia, and surgery require coordinated teams to provide care safely and optimize maternal and fetal outcomes. » Providers must verify pregnancy safety stratifications before medication selection.
