🏆 2025 BIBA® Pregnancy and Midwifery Winner!
Midwives attending childbirth in homes and birth centers seldom encounter emergencies, but when a crisis occurs, lives hang in the balance! It is difficult to remain proficient in skills so seldom practiced, yet pregnant women rely on the expertise of the provider in an emergency. Birth Emergencies for Community Midwives comprehensively explores the recognition and treatment of antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum complications, spanning the care provided in community settings and definitive management in hospitals. Though written primarily for midwives who attend community births, Birth Emergencies merges current information with holistic perspectives that can help to reduce maternal, fetal, and neonatal complications in any setting.
