Threatened Periviable Delivery and Abortion: Clinical Considerations.

Periviable delivery, or a pregnancy at risk of delivery between 20 0/7 and 25 6/7 weeks gestational, is an uncommon event with profound physical, psychological, and financial impact. Neonatal outcomes can be hard to predict and with the changing legal landscape around abortion access, management options may be compromised. Dynamic maternal and fetal factors make a cohesive and supportive care team critical for optimal care. Management of threatened periviable delivery in a post-Roe United States may prioritize fetal outcomes regardless of threat to maternal health due to legal restrictions.
