Clear, concise and immensely practical, this book is written for those who may be involved in obstetric emergencies at all levels of care - obstetricians, trainees, family practitioners, midwives and nurses. Essential Management of Obstetric Emergencies will be especially useful to those who infrequently encounter such problems and whose facilities and assistance may be limited but is comprehensive enough to be valuable to those with abundant experience and resources.
