Critical care obstetrics: experts' round table discussion.
A panel of leading experts in critical care obstetric (CCOB) nursing met to discuss the specialty and its future, the impact of changes in the health care system, educational opportunities to learn and update CCOB nursing, formation and use of standards for the specialty, patient placement (dedicated obstetric intensive care units [OB ICU], labor and delivery intensive care units [L & D ICU], regular intensive care units [ICU]), patient populations, and interactions and working relationships with the physicians who care for CCOB patients (perinatologists, obstetricians, internists, obstetric medicine specialists, anesthesiologists, other subspecialists). The topics for discussion were chosen by Carol J. Harvey, RNC, MS, who acted as moderator and Mary Ellen Burke, RN, MS, coordinated the publication of the discussion.
