Anti-D in Midwifery: Panacea or Paradox?
ISBN: 9780750652322 / Angielski / Miękka / 165 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the last 30 years, Anti-D, or Rhogam as it is known in the USA, has become accepted as being routinely advisable for rhesus negative women. Yet the question remains that - if women's bodies are designed to give birth without intervention for the majority of the time - why is this necessary? This book explores the paradox between physiological birth and the routine 'need' for anti-D and highlights some interesting evidence which may throw light on this paradox. Are women's bodies really fallible, or could some women's need for anti-D be caused by medical intervention in childbirth? Do...
