A small effort that can 
  make a big difference:Please tell ten friends to tell ten today. 
  The Breast Cancer site ishaving trouble getting enough people to click 
  on it daily to meet theirquota of donating at least one free mammogram 
  a day to anunderprivileged woman.It takes less than a minute 
  to go to their site and click on "donating amammogram" for free (pink 
  window in the middle). This doesn't cost you athing. Their corporate 
  sponsors/advertisers use the number of dailyvisits to donate a 
  mammogram in exchange for advertising.Here's the web 
  site!Pass it along to 10 people you know.http://www.thebreastcancersite.comMs Christine de MatosDoctoral candidate and part-time

[ozmidwifery] Caesarean HSV brain inflammation

C-section has minor risk of maternal HSV-2 brain 
inflammationCesarean SectionOctober 2, 2003 
2003 OCT 2 - (NewsRx.com  NewsRx.net) -- Cesarean sections can have an 
HSV-2 meningitis or encephalitis risk for the mother. 
"Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) encephalitis is rare, especially during 
pregnancy. In immunocompetent patients, HSV-2 meningitis (contrary to HSV-1 
meningitis) is usually mild, without encephalitis," scientists writing in the 
Journal of Infection report. 
"We report a rare case of maternal, HSV-2 encephalitis following Cesarean 
section. The woman had no symptomatic genital lesion, and the infant was not 
infected," wrote C. Godet and colleagues. 
The researchers concluded: "The route of meningeal infection (neuronal or 
hematogenous) is discussed." 
Godet and colleagues published their study in Journal of Infection 
(Maternal Herpes simplex virus type 2 encephalitis following Cesarean section. J 
Infection, 2003;47(2):174-175).

a publicity plan for this project if that's okay with you.I also promised 
you a release form for stories. Will work on that next week and will email it to 
you or bring to the next MC meeting.

Hope 
you are well.

Hi Linda,

I did some research in my midwifery degree, about just 
that. There is some great reference material out there, I'll list some 
here...


http://www.aromaweb.com/links/default.asp
http://www.gentlebirth.org/archives/aromathr.html


Anything by Denise Tiran is bound to be good, I found, and I 
also accessed the ongoing trial being done at the Radcliffe centre in Oxford by 
Ethel Burns, Caroline Blamey et al, which is fantastic also.

Hope this helps, 

Tania

Re: [ozmidwifery] meconium stained liquor

2003-10-02 Thread JoFromOz



We do suction on the perineum for all Mec, and anything more 
than light staining warrants a paed at birth. Here they use a grading 
system, Mec I, II and III. I haven't used that before in Victoria, 
but everyone seems to use it here in WA.
