Question

how can we keep mother safe against the risk of pregnancy and childbirth?




​

Answer 1

In spite of technology and medical science's ability to manage complex health problems, the current maternity care environment has increased risks for healthy women and their babies. It comes as a surprise to most women that standard maternity care does not reflect best scientific evidence. In this column, evidence-based maternity care practices are discussed with an emphasis on the practices that increase safety for mother and baby, and what pregnant women need to know in order to have safe, healthy births is described.

Keywords: evidence-based maternity care, childbirth education, safe birth, healthy birth, healthy birth practices, induction, cesarean, movement in labor, labor support, routine interventions, epidural, episiotomy, intravenous in labor, nutrition during labor, maternal-infant interaction, breastfeeding, birth positions, normal birth, electronic fetal monitoring, informed decision making, choice in childbirth

Hygiene, better overall health, and antibiotics were responsible for the dramatic drop in maternal morbidity and mortality in the 20th century (Rooks, 1997). In the last half of the 20th century, advances in medicine made birth safer for high-risk women and for women with pre-existing medical conditions or serious complications in their current pregnancy. There is no scientific evidence to support that moving birth to the hospital or primary maternity care provided by obstetricians has made birth safer for healthy women with no pre-existing medical conditions (Enkin et al., 2000). Increasing evidence shows that the routine use of technology during labor and birth and the use of other routine interventions without a clear medical indication have contributed to the dramatic rise in the cesarean rate and other maternal and newborn complications, including a rise in maternal mortality in the United States (Goer, Leslie, & Romano, 2007). Each intervention interferes in often powerful ways with the process of labor and birth and increases risks for mother and baby.
