Identifying a viral rash in pregnancy
Viral exanthema can cause rash in a pregnant woman and should be considered even in countries that have comprehensive vaccination programmes. Measles and rubella can cause intrauterine death. Intrauterine infection with rubella can lead to congenital rubella syndrome in the liveborn baby.
In this podcast, Jack Carruthers, honorary clinical research fellow at Imperial College London joins us to discuss spotting a viral rash, what steps to take to assess cause, and what advice to give a worried parent.
