Midwifery is the health science and health profession that deals with pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period (including care of the newborn),[1] in addition to the sexual and reproductive health of women throughout their lives.[2] In many countries, midwifery is a medical profession[3][4][5][6][7] (special for its independent and direct specialized education; should not be confused with the medical specialty, which depends on a previous general training). A professional in midwifery is known as a midwife.
A 2013 Cochrane review concluded that "most women should be offered midwifery-led continuity models of care and women should be encouraged to ask for this option although caution should be exercised in applying this advice to women with substantial medical or obstetric complications."[8] The review found that midwifery-led care was associated with a reduction in the use of epidurals, with fewer episiotomies or instrumental births, and a decreased risk of losing the baby before 24 weeks' gestation. However, midwifery-led care was also associated with a longer mean length of labor as measured in hours.[8]
