Every year on Oct. 15, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day reminds us that far too many women experience the unimaginable heartbreak of losing a pregnancy or an infant. For many, that grief is made worse in Canada by gaps in care and a health system that has not yet fully adapted to the compassionate and comprehensive services these women require and deserve.

To help close these gaps, the SOGC released a new Clinical Practice Guideline on early pregnancy loss earlier this year, which sets out a roadmap for improving the standard of care across the country. Additionally, the SOGC has been calling for a National Stillbirth Strategy that would standardize data collection, identify possible preventions and ensure that all families dealing with these tragedies are better supported and provided with compassionate care.

The SOGC has issued a position statement reaffirming that acetaminophen remains a safe and appropriate first-line option for managing fever and pain during pregnancy when medically needed.

Despite claims suggesting a link between prenatal exposure to acetaminophen and certain neurodevelopmental disorders, the SOGC notes that the evidence for these claims is weak and has been consistently refuted by scientific and regulatory bodies.
In an age of growing misinformation, the SOGC urges Canadians to rely on evidence-based science and clinical expertise.
