      abstract = {The studies discussed address the challenges and advances in the transport of obstetric patients in emergencies outside the hospital, emphasizing the importance of effective protocols, continuous training, and improvements in communication between healthcare professionals. The study on Protocol 24 of the Medical Dispatch Priority System reveals that, despite its well-defined structure, there are areas for adjustments, particularly regarding language used in spontaneous abortion situations. Other studies highlight the crucial role of paramedics in unplanned births outside the hospital, pointing to the need for specific training to handle maternal and neonatal complications such as excessive hemorrhages and hypothermia. The research also highlighted gaps in transport services in countries like India, where the lack of clear protocols and the underuse of ambulance services like "108" indicate the need for improvements in managing obstetric emergencies. On the other hand, in countries like the Netherlands, efficient cooperation between midwives, paramedics, and hospitals contributes to the success of transporting pregnant women, minimizing associated risks. The findings suggest that it is essential to improve existing protocols, provide continuous training for healthcare professionals, and ensure better infrastructure for emergency transport services to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality. Interprofessional collaboration and adapting practices to the local context are key to achieving better outcomes in obstetric emergencies.},
