The fifth edition of this prestigious text includes information on:

  • Labor dystocia causes and early interventions and strategies promoting normal labor and birth
  • Application of fetal heart rate monitoring (intermittent auscultation, continuous electronic fetal monitoring, and wireless telemetry) while promoting movement and labor progress
  • The role of oxytocin and labor progress, and ethical considerations in oxytocin administration
  • Prolonged prelabor and latent first through fourth stage labor, addressing factors associated with dystocia
  • Positions, comfort measures and respectful care

With meticulous referencing and clear, practical instructions throughout, Simkin's Labor Progress Handbook continues to be a timely and accessible guide for novices and experts alike, including doulas, nurses, midwives, physicians, and students.
