[ABSTRACT]
Pulmonary edema is an infrequent yet severe complication that may arise in the postpartum period following normal vaginal delivery. Prompt recognition and treatment are essential to prevent further deterioration. Here, we present a case involving a 23-year-old primigravida, who exhibited symptoms of shortness of breath, cough, abdominal pain, and orthopnea on the fifth day post-partum day. Following diagnosis of postpartum pulmonary edema, the patient received subsequent management in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a Peripheral hospital. The patient’s clinical condition improved, leading to discharge from the ICU on the eighth postpartum day. This case underscores the significance of coordinated care across various medical specialties and timely intervention in managing such conditions even in resource limited setting.
