Just to confuse the issue...Last week a woman
experienced hypertonic uterus after induction by PG gels. There was a heated
debate about the use of inhalation ventolin - one dr saying it only acts locally
(in the lungs) according the evidence when inhaled. The other arguing she uses
successfully prior to ECV's. The woman had five puffs and the contractions
slowed down to 3 in 10.
Ah its a pleasure working in a rural hsp where most
the doctors couldn't give a fig for keeping abreast of latest research.
NOT. and very confusing for the committed registrars trying to learn from
them.
As for the women - they are kept way out of the
argument - sadly like lambs to the slaughter. Also very hard to entice them to
join the midwives chorus to establish midwifery models of care it seems. Only
the few families who have lived and birthed in other areas before know what they
are missing out on.
