ABSTRACT

Amniotic fluid embolism(AFE)is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality.Our understanding of its diagnosis,differential diagnosis and treatment is hampered by the nonspecific clinical manifestation and a lack of uniform definition.AFE is often overdiagnosed or missed in peripartum women.It makes great significance to improve perinatal outcomes through differential and early diagnosis of AFE.
