Re: [ozmidwifery] telemetry ctg machine?
you can use the cordless telemetry monitors in the shower as they are waterproof allowing more mobility for your labouring women and also continually monitoring at risk babies and women. but there is also another one that you can plug in your usual leads to a portable (like a handbag) monitor but this cannot be used in the shower. It depends on what money you can access as well as your clients preferences if at risk. They range in price from $12 000 - $22000 in Australia and that is if you have the right machine to connect it to start with. Food for thought: this may lead the way for all women in a hospital setting to be tied to a monitor even when in normal labour and birth??? but it does give women the mobility and shower/bath use that we cannot offer when on regular monitors . Hope this is what you were needing Jenni [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/01/06 3:01 pm Hi wise midwives, Do any of you know any compelling reasons or research on the advantages or disadvantages of using telemetry ctg machines as apposed to the usual ones? I'm trying to get my head around whether they are a good or bad thing to have in a practice setting and how having one avaliable for use changes how midwives care for women in labour.

RE: [ozmidwifery] when to cut an episiotomy
Hi I am usually quite a silent participant but felt an urge to comment on this topic. I have been a midwife for 15years and still am working in hospital settings with high risk women and women that choose to birth in a hospital. The rate of episiotomy can be high in hospital settings but I have had to perform 8 in all this time and all for severe fetal distress and I feel that if all of my pregnant women that I cared for were low risk pregnancy and natural healthy labour then this would yield a different result. Sometimes I keep a closer eye on previous history of 3rd 4th degree tears who have done no perineal massageantenatally. hope this helps Jenni *** This email, including any attachments sent with it, is confidential and for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
