Product Description

Product Description
Recognised by many as the leading international textbook for midwives, Myles Textbook for Midwives returns in its 14th edition. This edition has been revised by new editors Diane Fraser and Maggie Cooper who are regarded as being at the forefront of the profession. They have recruited a number of new contributors to ensure that this edition is completely up to date with current thought and practice.

In keeping with the accent on teamwork in today's maternity services, there are more contributions from other members of the healthcare team, as well as a mother's perspective on the use of technology within pregnancy and childbirth. The focus is on the provision of woman-centred, midwife-friendly care. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars And the answer to the question everyone wants to know...., 15 Feb 2007
Yes - its better than Mayes. Well I think so anyway!

I've used the book for every assignment in my training and am sure I will continue to dip into the book when qualified. Its clearly written and easy to understand. Broken down into short sections with good headings. Useful diagrams.

There's 7 sections in the book and each section is split into different chapters, each written by a different author.

Section 1 - Midwifery.

Section 2 - Anatomy and Reproduction.
Chapters Include; pelvis, female urinary system, hormonal cycles, fertilisation, placenta, the fetus.

Section 3 - Pregnancy
Chapters Include; Adaptation to pregnancy, parent education, exercises, antenatal care, abnormalities, problems, medical disorders, multiple pregnancies, fetal investigation.

Section 4 - Labour.
Chapters inc; first stage, pain relief, 2nd stage, third stage, uterine action disorders, malposition, operative delivery, obstetric emergencies.

Section 5 - The Puerperium.
Chapters Inc; Physioology, Complications, Psychology, Family Planning, Bereavement.

Section 6 - Newborn Baby.
Chapters Inc; Normal Baby, feeding, low birthweight baby, the ill baby, respiratory problems, Trauma during birth, Abnormalities, Jaundice.
