2026 AAENP National Conference: EmergNP

Postpartum patients often present with vague or unexpected symptoms, making it easy to overlook serious, potentially life-threatening complications. This session will provide a practical framework for recognizing postpartum emergencies beyond obstetric hemorrhage, including hypertensive disorders, thromboembolic disease, infection, and other high-risk conditions that require timely intervention. You'll leave with greater confidence in triaging postpartum patients, identifying subtle warning signs, and making critical decisions that improve outcomes for this unique and often underrecognized patient population.
