To all, Please, please, please give me more information regarding the dangers of ultrasound.
I am currently working in a remote hospital whereby the GP provides the antenatal care. His brilliant idea to check fetal heart rates is to do an informal ultrasound at almost every visit. When I questioned their practice, they stated that there is no evidence to the dangers of ultrasound and that unless I could provide around 20 articles, he would not discuss the issue any further. As you can see, I am getting very frustrated. At least I can help to educate the women so they can decide their need for ultrasounds in low risk pregnancies. It is also quite scary when women present during their pregnancy or in labour and they have never heard their babies heart, they have only seen it.
