Summary
During the course of a normal pregnancy, the respiratory system undergoes both physiological and anatomical changes. These changes can predispose to the development of acute respiratory conditions; they can also affect the natural history of chronic pulmonary disease. Conversely, poorly controlled chronic pulmonary conditions can adversely affect the progress of pregnancy [1].
