    Author: Rodrigues R, Nunes F, Meirinho M.
    Journal: Acta Med Port; 2007; 20(1):93-5. PubMed ID: 17624288.
    Abstract:
    The amniotic fluid embolism continues to be an unusual, but catastrophic situation, with high mortality. With a complex pathophysiology, it leads to cardiovascular collapse and disseminated intravascular coagulation. The immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation and monitoring in an Intensive Care Unit with a multidisciplinary team are essential aspects in the management of this situation.
