Hello Everyone
Wondering If I can tap into your minds of wisdom.
We are currently fighting with a registrar at work regarding post natal observations. At present if a woman has had a normal vaginal birth with no complications either antenatally or during the birth we do not routinely take BP, P or Temps.
The registrar does not quite like this idea and is trying to change our practice as she feels that things might be missed and that birth has a huge impact on a woman's health.
We have argued the point that these women are well women and that if they feel unwell we would then take observations.
I guess I am wondering what the practice elsewhere is and if there is any evidence to support our practice
Thanks
Melanie Dunstan
