ACOG PostPartum MultiModal Pain Control (Sept 2021 Clinical Consensus): Part 1

Uncontrolled postpartum pain can lead to postpartum depression, impaired maternal-child bonding, and even chronic pain syndromes. Uncontrolled postpartum pain can also lead, in some individuals, to a form of PTSD. In this session, we will review the September 2021 Clinical Consensus statement from the ACOG on using a “MultiModal Stepwise Approach” to Postpartum pain management. Do NSAIDS increase blood pressure? When are TAP blocks recommended? We will answer these questions and more in this session. (This is Part 1)
