SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Emergency nurses need additional knowledge of abortion-limiting legislation as well as the related clinical, ethical and legal implications for both emergency care staff and their patients, a study published in the September issue of the Journal of Emergency Nursing found.

Key Points:

The findings also call attention to the increase in pregnant patients seeking care in emergency departments as the number of "OB deserts"—regions with limited or absent perinatal care—grows.
Through interviews with ED nurses, the study explored the clinical decision-making processes of emergency nurses caring for patients with obstetrical emergencies in the context of limited or no access to abortion care.
"
Second, EDs are seeing more and more obstetric emergencies in communities where no OB services are available," said Wolf, who is also Director, Emergency Nursing Research at ENA.
The Journal of Emergency Nursing, ENA's peer-reviewed academic journal, is published six times a year with original research and updates from the emergency nursing specialty, while also covering practice and professional issues.
