Skilled care during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period is vital to the survival and health of mothers and newborns. In fact, the wellbeing of a society is represented by the health of mothers, newborns and children. To this end, the United Nations has determined that the number of births assisted by a skilled attendant is one of the indicators of progress in a country. Juta's clinical guide for Midwives is a user-friendly, illustrated clinical manual developed to provide all midwives with up-to-date knowledge and practical skills. For ease of use, the title has been split into three parts - the antenatal months, the second and third stages of labour, and the postnatal period. These parts are split into modules, each one covering a specific topic, which contain - step-by-step instructions for carrying out procedures, along with a rationale for each; clinical tips drawn from years of midwifery experience; clear illustrations to demonstrate difficult procedures or concepts. Juta's clinical guide for midwives has been created to assist students of midwifery and as a continuing education resource for practising midwives, tutors and medical students. The information within it is essential for the achievement of millennium development goals four and five the reduction of infant and maternal mortality and morbidity. It is an appropriate and timely guide for midwives in South Africa today.

Very good resource for the essentials

Thu, 23 Jun 2022 | Review by: Rensche D.

I found this book to be very good to have when quickly wanting to check on essentials in midwifery. It is not a very detailed book, but the aim is to be a quick guide, not a full textbook ,and in that, it succeeds. I like how it is structured so that the procedure is explained with the rationale behind each step. This makes it easy to understand why the steps are important, and to me, helps me remember them better. The price is fair. If you do not have a lot of funds, make these summaries on your own, but if possible, get is as having this resource has helped me save time and understand the work better.
