The immune system and its response * Wound healing * Nutrition and its role in healing * Perineal Wounds * Caesarean section wounds * Alternative healing and complementary therapies * Common and rare areas of sepsis: midwifery issues * Infection control around childbirth: the midwife's role.
Electronic 'As midwives, caring for a woman with a serious infection is rare, and in most cases even the most extreme infection will respond to treatment and the outcome will be good. However until the 1930s infection was the main cause of maternal death in the UK and despite excellent progress in care of these women, in 2000-2002 sepsis was still the fifth most common cause of maternal mortality in the UK (and estimated to be the second most common cause of maternal death worldwide). Although the relatively small number of women dying in the UK can be seen as a success, it must be remembered than any infection can also lead to short or long term morbidity, which can influence or even change a woman's life forever.'
