AB  - Virtually  any  pathologic  process  which  affects  the  mother  has  the  potential  to  affect  the  fetus.  The  type  and  severity  of  fetal  impact  will  depend  on  many  variables  among  which  are  whether  the  insult  is  acute  or  chronic,  how  the  insult  affects  fetal  oxygenation  via  oxygen  delivery  and  uterine  perfusion,  and  the  ability  to  intervene  based  on  gestational  age  and  the  hemodynamic  and  respiratory  status  of  the  mother.  Critical  to  decision  making  in  these  situations  is  a  basic  understanding  of  fetal  physiology  as  it  relates  to  these  functions.
