Normal cardiovascular and respiratory changes in pregnancy can predispose women to the development of pulmonary edema. Conditions and treatments unique to pregnancy, such as multiple gestation or tocolysis, further increase this risk. Recognition of risk factors and signs and symptoms of pulmonary edema allows the nurse to intervene quickly, thus decreasing potential complications to the mother and child.
孕期正常的心血管和呼吸系统变化会使女性易患肺水肿。孕期特有的情况和治疗方法，如多胎妊娠或宫缩抑制，会进一步增加这种风险。识别肺水肿的风险因素、体征和症状，可使护士迅速进行干预，从而减少对母婴的潜在并发症。
