[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of posters actually are arguing the same points. Yes, births in the US have become overmedicalized. Is freebirthing the answer? No.[/quote] What do you propose IS the answer, when US hospitals CONTINUE to have the highest maternal death rate in the Western world?[/quote] Take a close look at what CA is doing. It's proving to be effective. And what are they doing? Providing direct training and feedback to doctors and hospitals on standards of care both to reduce over-medicalization AND on appropriate monitoring and response to emergency events. [/quote] NP, but my understanding of the CA outcomes is that the vast majority of the improvement in CA maternal mortality outcomes due to is implementing statewide standard and required procedures in reaction to postpartum hemorrhage incidents, not lowering interventions. And I say that as a midwifery patient who is hoping to avoid interventions.[/quote]
