Including contributions from leading clinicians and researchers in the field, this welcome overview fills an important gap in existing medical literature on women's health care and will be an invaluable resource for doctors, clinicians, and medical students at all stages of their careers who work in the global health arena. The reproductive health risks that all women face are greatly exacerbated when health care facilities are inadequate, equipment and medications are in short supply, and well-trained medical staff are few and far away. Often in these settings, the sole doctor or medical professional on hand has expertise in some areas of women's reproductive care but needs a refresher course in others. This informative guide features hands-on, step-by-step instruction for the most pertinent OB/GYN conditions-both acute and chronic-that health care workers in the field confront. The authors examine a wide range of topics, including: strategies to reduce maternal mortality and stillbirths; infectious and sexually transmitted diseases, including malaria and HIV; cervical cancer; contraception; prenatal, delivery, and newborn care; and complications arising from gender-based violence and female genital cutting. Published in a convenient format with a durable binding, this reference will be an essential companion to health care providers throughout the world. 606 $aObstetrics$zDeveloping countries$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aGynecology$zDeveloping countries$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aReproductive health$zDeveloping countries$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aWomen$xHealth and hygiene$zDeveloping countries$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aMaternal health services$zDeveloping countries$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 615 0$aObstetrics 615 0$aGynecology 615 0$aReproductive health 615 0$aWomen$xHealth and hygiene 615 0$aMaternal health services 676 $a618.2009172/4 702 $aNour$b Nawal M., 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136110503321 996 $aObstetrics and Gynecology in Low-Resource Settings$92886632 997 $aUNINA
