520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Throughout the prenatal period, nurses and nurse-midwives provide care for pregnant women in clinics and health centers, and they also offer classes to help families prepare for childbirth. During labor and birth, they care for child-bearing families in hospitals, birth centers, and sometimes at home. Obstetrics and midwifery are two related but different fields that focus on the care of pregnant and laboring women. Obstetrics deals with the problems and difficulties of pregnancy and labor, while midwifery emphasizes the normalcy of pregnancy and recognizes the vulnerability associated with the reproductive process. Midwifery emerged from the traditional social and physical support that women have given to one another during childbirth, while obstetrics gradually developed from the medical practices of ancient Greece and Rome, combined with modern anatomical research and surgery in premodern Europe. Obstetrics had its biggest impact in the late 18th century when the fundamentals of parturition were recognized, and large numbers of male medical practitioners began delivering babies. Anesthesia and antisepsis advanced obstetrics in the 19th century, and the introduction of sulfa drugs in the 20th century helped to reduce infections related to medical intervention during childbirth, which had been a leading cause of maternal death.<br/>Today, obstetrics is becoming increasingly technological and focuses on the pathology of pregnancy, while midwifery continues to prioritize the normalcy of pregnancy and the importance of providing pregnant and laboring women with practical and emotional support. The rise of obstetrics had a mixed effect on midwifery, with some midwives clinging to traditional ways and others embracing new science and seeking retraining. National policies also influenced midwifery practice, with American and British midwives being excluded from hospitals and schools that used new techniques and obstetrical knowledge, while European midwives were regulated and re-educated under local and national authorities.<br/>This book provides a comprehensive guide to midwifery and obstetrical nursing, covering all aspects of care during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postnatal care. It contains seven chapters that cover different topics related to midwifery and obstetrical nursing. This book is designed for students to appreciate the concepts and principles of Midwifery and obstetrical nursing. It helps them to acquire knowledge and skills in rendering nursing care to normal and high risk pregnant woman during antenatal, natal and post natal periods in hospitals and community settings. It also helps to develop skills in managing normal and high-risk neonates and participate in family welfare program"-- Back cover.
