- Midwife abstract "A practitioner of obstetrics is known as a midwife, a term used in reference to both women and men, although most midwives are female. In addition to providing care to women during pregnancy and birth, some midwives may also provide primary care to women, well-woman care related to reproductive health, annual gynecological exams, family planning, and menopausal care. Many developing countries are investing money and training so that midwives and other community health workers can provide primary care services, that are currently lacking.Midwives are specialists in childbirth, postpartum, and well-woman health care. They are educated and trained to recognize the variations of normal progress of labor and deal with deviations from normal to discern and intervene in high risk situations. In many developing nations, midwifery is the front-line of maternal health services and provides necessary care in a safe and cost effective manner, where it is available. In the US, more women utilize obstetricians, rather than midwives, who are specialists, not only in healthy pregnancies, but also in illness related to childbearing and in surgery. Obstetricians are medical doctors and can provide surgery and instrumental deliveries in situations which require them. While an obstetrician may be necessary to provide successful delivery and care for women with health challenges and complicated pregnancies, well trained midwives can reduce the demand on the more highly trained obstetricians. There is also evidence that midwife-led care leads to increased positive outcomes when compared to other models (e.g. Obstetrician-led, Family doctor-led, and shared models of care), although there is no difference in child loss after 24 weeks.Midwives refer women to specialists such as obstetricians or perinatologists in complications related to pregnancy and birth when a pregnant woman requires care beyond the midwives' scope of practice. In many parts of the world, these professions work in tandem to provide care to childbearing women. In others, only the midwife is available to provide care. Midwives are trained to handle certain more difficult deliveries, including breech births, twin births and births where the baby is in a posterior position, using non-invasive techniques.For normal births, midwives offer care with lower intervention rates, have lower mortality and morbidity as a result of fewer interventions, and fewer recovery complications.".
