FYI: This is the latest in a series of reports from the Consultative Council on Obstetric and Paediatric Mortality and Morbidity entitled Morbidities associated with childbirth in Victoria Topic 2: Episiotomy and perineal lacerations.
This report is on the website at http://www.health.vic.gov.au/maternitycare/index.htm This report is recommended to those hospitals and clinicians concerned with practice issues around episiotomy and rates of 3rd and 4th degree tears. As well as extensive data analysis, the report includes a comparison with other populations, trends and an examination of the related literature. It concludes with a section on implications for maternity service providers. It would be great if you could take a few moments to distribute this email.
