Obstetrics and Pediatrics
The birth of a child is usually a wonderful and exciting event. Despite the occasional magazine or newspaper article extolling the virtues of having a child at home with an experienced midwife in attendance, we are still generally conditioned to having the baby in a hospital complete with attending physician. Sometimes, however, the baby decides to be born before the mother can get to the hospital. In such a case, you may be called upon to assist in the birth. Birth is a natural process with the mother doing the delivering and someone else, perhaps you, assisting in the delivery. Also, as much as children are wanted, there are times when some adults lose control and abuse a child. You need to know something about child abuse in case you find yourself examining a child you suspect has been abused.
This course deals with childbirth outside a medical treatment facility, pediatric emergencies, and child abuse. A lesson on the female and male reproductive systems is included to allow you to review these systems. Your attention to learning the material given in this course will prepare you to deal with situations involving childbirth and children.
This course is part of our Nursing series.
Includes a questions and answers section at the end of each lesson.
Full illustrations and diagrams included.
Lessons:
- The Reproductive Systems
- Normal and Emergency Childbirth
- Pediatric Emergencies
- Child Abuse
