Abstract/Notes

Excerpt: Although chiropractic care typically includes the care of pregnant patients, the research literature on safety for this patient group is relatively sparse. Pregnancy and particularly the puerperium are associated with an increased risk for stroke.1 Recent new evidence suggests less obvious risks for stroke, including the near-epidemic of obesity along with the Covid-19 pandemic. A systematic review of COVID-19 risks described how this infection activates coagulation pathways and thrombosis, with pregnancy possibly acting as a trigger increasing the risk for stroke.2 The purpose of this scoping review is to update and address the potential stroke risks in an effort to improve safety and efficacy when treating this population. A scoping review is an overview of the current background evidence relevant for clinical practice.
