Our knowledge, expertise and newest technologies can diagnose and manage any level of risk in a pregnancy.
We know that some pregnancies come with complications so we’re here to help. We will make sure you’re comfortable and confident—before, during, and after your baby’s birth.
OB Emergency Care Center
UC Medical Center houses the region’s first OB Emergency Care Center available to women 20+ weeks gestation and serves women up to 6 weeks post-delivery. Open 365 days a year, our board certified OB Hospitalists provide enhanced coverage and a critical safety net. We know that emergencies don’t always happen during office hours, and with many pregnancy complications faster treatment means a better outcome for the mother and baby.
Patients with OB emergencies often present with complications of pregnancy. These can include:
- Pain/bleeding in early pregnancy
- Pre-term labor
- Antenatal conditions
- Pelvic pain
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding
- Breast conditions
- Urological conditions, such as bladder infections or urinary tract infections
- Conditions related to high-risk pregnancy (example: high blood pressure)
Our advanced specialty care, physician and nursing teams and collaboration across all specialties is why UC Health is a preferred provider.
