Revisión de los protocolos sobre abdomen agudo quirúrgico no obstétrico en el embarazo. Revisión bibliográfica

Abstract

Introduction: During pregnancy, women can present non-gynecological surgical pathology, which is associated with high morbimortality for each hour of diagnostic delay. Currently, there are not enough protocols for each surgical pathology in pregnancy, a situation that in the long term affects the adequate management of abdominal surgical pathology in pregnant women. Methodology: This is a narrative literature review study, a broad review of the literature on protocols on acute non-obstetric surgery in pregnancy in scientific databases such as Pub Med, Scielo, Cochrane Library, and Science Direct, as part of the PRISMA strategy. Results: 50 studies were reviewed, which compiled the main recommendations on protocols on acute non-obstetric surgery in pregnancy. Conclusions: non-obstetric surgical abdominal pathology in pregnant women is a relevant issue, since it is associated with high morbimortality, despite the fact that there are no specific protocols for the management of each pathology in pregnancy, so it is important to be able to perform them in order to reduce the delay time and, therefore, the complications in pregnant women.
