The recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, the rescinding of Roe vs Wade and overturning the constitutional right to abortion, directly impedes the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship and will harm our patients and colleagues. The mission of the SPA is to care for children, their families, and our pediatric anesthesia community based on the science and best evidence available to us.  Therefore, as patient safety experts, we stand firm in our support for access to safe abortion care for all who seek it and the reproductive rights of all. We offer our support to our members as we all navigate the new waters raised by this decision.
