This section of our website is currently in the process of expanding. Listed below are 49 algorithms that cover obstetrical care on a wide variety of topics. These have been developed by physicians in the UNC Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, primarily by our Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialists. These algorithms are available to our colleagues free of charge as part of our service to North Carolina. At present, the entire MFM team is working together to review and update all 50 algorithms below. They are also developing a host of new algorithms at the same time. Further, as we build this section of our site we will be linking patient education materials and references to each algorithm. For our UNC colleagues, we will also add links to our internal UNC policies which can be accessed by providers on site at UNC. We appreciate your patience during our renovations. You can continue to have quick and easy access to all the algorithms below.
If you have questions about the algorithms, please contact the MFM Division Director Dr. Kate Menard at kate_menard@med.unc.edu or (919) 966-1601. If you’d like algorithms on additional topics, please let us know. Found these useful? Have other comments? Please let us know. Email cmih@med.unc.edu.
One note to providers. These algorithms are designed to assist the primary care provider in the clinical management of a variety of problems that occur during pregnancy. They should not be interpreted as standard of care, but instead represent guidelines for management. Variation in practice should take into account such factors as characteristics of the individual patient, health resources, and regional experience with diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.
The algorithms remain the intellectual property of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine at Chapel Hill. They cannot be reproduced in whole or in part without the expressed written permission of the school.
There are 48 algorithms listed below in alphabetical order that may be used in practice to treat different high-risk conditions. These algorithms may also be found in this section by topic.
