Katz reports record attendance—over 900 preregistrations and nearly 1,100 total—plus standing-room sessions and review of 600+ abstracts. He highlights opening with research presentations (magnesium and postpartum hemorrhage, gestational thrombocytopenia and hemorrhage, and potential immunotherapies tied to uterine atony), a translational theme on how guidelines evolve, public health/advocacy, and a maternal mortality panel. Programming includes split research and clinical tracks, updates on postpartum hemorrhage, and an emerging focus on fetal surgery.
