Abstract:

The role of GPs in providing maternity care has changed dramatically over the past 30 years, with a trend towards declining involvement; however, recent proposals have suggested greater involvement is required. Nevertheless, the GP remains an important point of contact for postnatal advice, and it is the GP who usually carries out the 6-week postnatal maternal check. This article aims to provide an overview of the common types of problems mothers may encounter in the postnatal period and how they can be appropriately managed. It also provides a guide for the topics to be covered during the 6-w

Abstract:

Postnatal care is the aspect of maternity care with which women in England are least satisfied. Little is known about first-time mothers’ expectations of postnatal care, or how these expectations relate to their experiences and appraisal of care. Thirty-two first-time mothers took part in a longitudinal qualitative descriptive study, based on two semi-structured interviews—the first in pregnancy, and the second 2 to 3 months after birth. Trajectory analysis was used to identify the thematic patterns in the relationships between postnatal care expectations, needs, experiences, and confidence. F

Abstract:

AbstractIn the pig industry the mortality of piglets both during the birth process and in the subsequent 3 to 5 weeks is unacceptably high. This review attempts to summarize the major causes of these losses and to suggest means whereby such losses may be minimized in the commercial situation. Stillbirth rate is discussed in relation to various management regimes and it is concluded that anoxia (the primary cause of intra-partum piglet deaths) may be minimized by the provision of careful assistance during the birth process. Pre-weaning mortality is presented as a complex interaction of factors

(Anaesthesia. 2023;78(9):1058–1061) The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) characterizes current UK postnatal care as a “Cinderella service,” marked by insufficient provisions and only 8.5% of the maternity care budget. Despite 97% of births occurring in hospitals, the average postnatal stay of 1.5 days is the shortest among high-income countries. While most women find their stay appropriate, empowering them to choose its duration enhances satisfaction without adverse effects.

Abstract:

Home visiting is a crucial aspect of postnatal care services as recommended by the WHO, but it appears to be the most neglected service. This is due to various challenges like a shortage of manpower, inadequately skilled or trained health care workers, the non-availability of assessment tools and resources, and a lack of community awareness of the importance of postnatal care. However, it's the responsibility of health care workers, especially the midwives, to carry out postnatal home care visits to ensure the well-being of both the mother and the neonates, as well as the assessment of the env
