Maternal Special Care Unit
Pregnancy is a natural part of life. But for women with serious health problems, the stress of childbirth can be life threatening. That’s why Hutzel Women’s Hospital created the Maternal Special Care Unit – Michigan’s only intensive care unit for pregnant women.
The five-bed Maternal Special Care Unit at Hutzel Women’s Hospital is a destination for acutely ill pregnant women. Special care physicians and nurses provide 24-hour-a-day, critical care to pregnant women with serious conditions, including:
- Pulmonary embolisms
- Severe pneumonia
- Severe asthma
- Stroke
- Congestive Heart Failure
- Cardiovascular disease
- High blood pressure
- Severe diabetes
- Hypoxia (low oxygen levels in blood)
