Hello to all
I am writing a chapter for a forthcoming UK book on
Risk & Choice in Maternity Care (1e). It has an international section &
I am addressing Risk & Choice in Australia. I would like to quote some
stories about how information regarding risk was presented to pregnant women by
their caregiver. It can be a midwife, GP or Obs. The book is looking at the how
risk is perceived and analysed, highlighting the problematic notion of offering
choice to pregnant women when risk concerns result in these being severely
limited. What I am interested in is how the way the info was
presented influenced your choice? I will use pseudonyms, but it would be
good to have actual scenarios. If anyone has a reference or access to some
unpublished studies I would love to have these. Hope you can help. My e-mail is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or PO Box 143,
Eaglehawk Vic 3556.
