ABSTRACT
Shock is a state of circulatory impairment characterized by defective tissue perfusion resulting in abnormal cellular function and metabolism & inadequate tissue perfusion to meet tissue demands.[1] Parturition is a natural process. In majority of the cases it happens without any complications. In obstetrics the standard rule is non interference unless called for. Interfering with a normal labor unnecessarily is a starting point for many problems. However a normal labor can turn into abnormality at any point of time suddenly with no warning. Prompt recognition and management can improve maternal and fetal outcome in obstetric shock.
