Epidurals for Childbirth

by Anne May

The new edition of this unique handbook (previously published by OUP) is still the only guide currently available on epidurals in obstetrics. It presents clear, practically based descriptions of procedures that will enable maternity staff to answer patients' questions accurately and with confidence. The book is fully comprehensive, covering all medical aspects of epidurals including the relevant anatomy and physiology. There is even a chapter on how to talk to patients without using medical jargon. This handbook will be an ideal easy reference for all junior anaesthetists, midwives, and operating department practitioners.
