Description

Critical Care Assessment by Midwives provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to this emerging area of practice. As maternity units increasingly rely on midwife-led critical care, it's essential for all midwives to be skilled in assessment that facilitates timely, appropriate referrals and saves lives.

This textbook covers a range of topics, including ABCDE assessment tailored for midwives, cardiac conditions, respiratory conditions, neurological conditions, and more. It also explores the context of care, relevant pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, specific assessment in detail, relevant drugs, and psychosocial support.

With its focus on the specific professional responsibilities of the midwife, this guide is an essential resource for all midwives and midwifery students looking to develop their critical care skills.
