Korean Society of Maternal and Child Care Holds Family Friendly Formal Conference

Jul 01, 2025

"Medical staff who come to the hospital every single day to take care of patients and conduct difficult medical treatment and research at the same time. But they also have a family."

On the 21st of last month, the Korean Society of Mother and Child Care (Chairman Park Joong-shin) held the first '31st Academic Conference in 2025' at CJ Hall and Cheil Jedang Hall of Seoul National University Children's Hospital. This conference was a meaningful event to share the latest research results in maternal and fetal medicine, and to provide medical staff with academic discussions and an opportunity to spend valuable time with their families. In addition, it was an important position to take the first step toward the development of maternal fetal medicine and a healthy medical environment.

Maternal fetal medicine is a medicine that protects the health of pregnant women and fetuses at the same time, and medical staff are committed to protecting both lives safely every day. In particular, in the case of high-risk pregnancy, if proper treatment and management are not performed, it can lead to fatal consequences for both pregnant women and fetuses, so a systematic response is needed to solve this problem.




Facing this difficult reality, the Korean Society of maternal and fetal medicine is making every effort to protect the health of medical staff, pregnant women, and fetuses.

At this conference, various studies were presented to protect the health of pregnant women and fetuses, and the latest findings related to high-risk pregnancies drew attention. The announcement of the latest treatment for uterine contraction inhibitors was emphasized to play an important role in ensuring the safety of mothers and fetuses, and the announcement on postpartum bleeding treatment introduced a new method, suggesting the possibility of lowering mortality.

The presentation of the latest diagnostic methods that can detect pregnancy addiction early and perform appropriate treatment has been evaluated as increasing the applicability in the field. In addition, research on the latest treatments for preterm birth prevention has been spotlighted as an important treatment that can provide practical help to high-risk pregnant women.




The biggest feature of this conference was not only the academic presentation, but also the provision of a special environment for medical staff to be with their families. A family room was prepared separately, and the video of the conference was transmitted at the same time so that children aged 3 or older could participate with their parents. Children can also freely bring their favorite personal items such as toys, books, and dolls, adding to the meaning of an academic conference for all families. In addition, the children who attended were awarded a citation in recognition of their efforts and sincerity in participating in the academic conference, which became a meaningful experience not only for medical staff but also for their children.

A medical staff who attended the conference said, `I have been working on protecting the lives of pregnant women and fetuses every day, but I have not been able to devote much time to my family"This conference was a very meaningful time to spend precious time with family members who have not been able to be together and to participate in academic discussions."

Chairman Park Joong-shin of Seoul National University Hospital said, "This conference was not just an academic research presentation, but a place where medical staff and their families gathered together to share each other's efforts and hardships, and to think about ways to create a better birth environment in the future. We hope that this event will be a good example for other conferences in the future, so that more medical staff can take care of themselves and their families and have an opportunity to build professionalism."
