Download or read book Vacuum Extraction in Modern Obstetric Practice written by J.P. O'Grady and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1995-05-15 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the definitive textbook on the widely used vacuum extraction technique for operative vaginal delivery in obstetric practice. It is written by two of America's foremost obstetricians, Drs. John Patrick O'Grady and Martin L. Gimovsky, in collaboration with Doctor of Jurisprudence Cyril J. McIlhargie, who state in their preface: "Vacuum extraction has become an increasingly popular delivery technique. . . . Despite the similarities between vacuum extraction and forceps operations, skill in the use of forceps does not guarantee similar expertise in vacuum extraction. Specialized training is essential. . . . Most residency education and continuing medical education programs do not prepare students adequately . . . "For these reasons, we believe there is a need for new educational materials concerning all aspects of instrumental delivery including vacuum extraction. This has led us to prepare this clinically oriented monograph, including what we believe to be reasonable and appropriate guidelines for vacuum extraction delivery in American obstetric practice. . . . the text includes a discussion of the risks and benefits of instrumental vaginal delivery and a brief review of pertinent legal issues. We trust that this book will assist clinicians in developing their skills in vacuum-assisted delivery and will contribute to the improvement of obstetric care."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for the previous edition: “…An outstanding handbook. It will be a familiar volume on most midwifery bookshelves, providing an excellent guide to midwifery focused care of both woman and child in the birthing setting.” - Nursing Times Online Providing a practical and comprehensive guide to midwifery care, The Midwife’s Labour and Birth Handbook continues to promote best practice and a safe, satisfying birthing experience with a focus on women-centred care. Covering all aspects of care during labour and birth, from obstetric emergencies to the practicalities of perineal repair (including left-hand suturing), the fourth edition has been fully revised and updated to include: Full colour photographs of kneeling extended breech and footling breech births New water birth and breech water birth photographs Female genital mutilation Sepsis Group B streptococcus Care of the woman with diabetes /Neonatal hypoglycaemia Mental health Seeding/microbirthing It also addresses important issues such as: Why are the numbers of UK women giving birth in stirrups RISING rather than falling? Why are so few preterm babies given bedside resuscitation with the cord intact? Would the creation of midwife breech practitioners/specialists enable more women to choose vaginal breech birth and is breech water birth safe? What is the legal position for women who choose to free birth – and their birth partners? Why are midwives challenging the OASI care bundle? Incorporating research, evidence and anecdotal observations, The Midwife’s Labour and Birth Handbook remains an essential resource for both student midwives and experienced practising midwives.
