Background: While the global maternal mortality ratio (MMR) shows a decreasing trend, there is room for improvement. Midwifery education has been under scrutiny to ensure that graduates acquire knowledge and skills relevant to the local context. Objective: To review the basic professional midwifery qualification and pre-practice requirements in countries with lower MMR compared with Malaysia. Methods: A rapid review of country-specific Ministry of Health and Midwifery Association websites and Advanced Google using standardised key words. English-language documents reporting the qualifications of midwives or other requirements to practise midwifery from countries with a lower MMR than Malaysia were included. Results: Sixty-three documents from 35 countries were included. The minimum qualification required to become a midwife was a bachelor’s degree. Most countries require registration or licensing to practise, and 35.5% have implemented preregistration national midwifery examinations. In addition, 13 countries require midwives to have nursing backgrounds. Conclusion: In countries achieving better maternal outcomes than Malaysia, midwifes often have a degree or higher qualification. As such, there is a need to reinvestigate and revise the midwifery qualification requirements in Malaysia.

Research has identified midwifery as key to improving maternal and child health globally. Consequently, increasing the numbers, access, and quality of midwives is paramount as attention, funding, education, and support increases. Yet what a midwife and midwifery are is often misunderstood. The terms midwife and midwifery are often used interchangeably. Other cadres such as nurses, doulas, Skilled Birth Attendant, traditional birth attendant, and nurses with obstetric/perinatal experience are often referred to as midwives or providers of midwifery care. As health systems work to integrate midwives and midwifery, global clarity and understanding must exist on what midwives are and what they are not, and what midwifery is and is not. As the first step to establishing clarity; we undertook a critical comparison of existing different countries, ‘not for profit and professional organizations’ definitions and interpretation of a midwife and midwifery philosophy. The International Confederation of Midwives' definition of a midwife and midwifery philosophy, and their Global Standards for Midwifery Education acted as the baseline. A global consensus and commitment to educational systems and culture that teaches the midwifery model and the philosophy behind that care can positively impact and improve outcomes for women and babies.

The paradigm of midwifery services at this time has experienced a shift where the high public interest in quality midwifery services demands midwifery service innovation and creativity from midwives. Many forms of entrepreneurship from the Midwife's Independent Practice are an option for midwives to increase the types of complementary midwifery services holistically (Body, mind and Spirit) to reduce medical interventions during pregnancy and postpartum, one of which is postpartum acuyoga, a combination of acupressure and yoga. The purpose of this community service is to provide information on knowledge and skills about postpartum Acuyoga to alumni of the Curup Midwifery Study Program who already have a Midwife Practice License. The method used in this community service is a workshop which is carried out for 3 days including the activities on the first day, namely the delivery of material about the independent business opportunities of midwives and Postpartum Acuyoga followed by the second day, namely the practice of Postpartum Acuyoga. This activity went smoothly and was attended by 30 midwives, where all participants were able to participate in the activity for 3 days without any obstacles. Participants understand the importance of innovating in developing midwifery services so that they can increase their income and experience in entrepreneurship.

Building experience in midwife-led care at freestanding midwifery units is needed to enhance assessment, technical, and care competencies specific to midwives. This study aimed to develop a self-assessment scale for midwifery practice competency based on the characteristics of midwife-led care practices in freestanding midwifery units. This study was conducted at 65 childbirth facilities in Japan between September 2017 and March 2018. The items on the scale were developed based on a literature review, discussion at a professional meeting, and a preliminary survey conducted at two timepoints. The validity and reproducibility of the scale were evaluated based on item analysis, compositional concept validity, internal consistency, stability, and criterion-related validity using data from 401 midwives. The final version of the scale consisted of 40 items. Cronbach’s α for the overall scale was 0.982. The results for compositional concept validity, internal validity, and criterion-related validity demonstrated that this scale is capable of evaluating a midwife’s practice competencies in intrapartum care. Repeated self-assessment using this scale could improve the competencies of midwives from an early stage, maximize the roles of physicians and midwives, and create an environment that provides high-quality assistance to women.

In Plato's Theaetetus Socrates is portrayed as a midwife of the intellect. The comparison of Socratic questioning to midwifery had until recently been commonly attributed to Socrates himself. In 1977 M. F. Burnyeat published Socratic Midwifery, Platonic Inspiration, which transformed the way in which the dialogue has since been perceived. The author maintains that the midwife comparison is in no sense to be attributed to the historical Socrates.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEAustralian rural areas access to midwifery continuity of carer models is restricted. Lack of medical support has been identified as one of the reasons midwifery continuity of carer models have not been implemented. The purpose of his study was to explore rural Australian doctors’ views about midwifery and midwifery continuity of carer models.STUDY DESIGNA qualitative study with general practitioner and specialist obstetricians (n = 10) working in Australian rural maternity services. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken and analyzed using thematic analysis.FINDINGSParticipants’ views of midwifery and midwifery continuity of carer models were expressed in three themes. The themes related to the concepts of knowing: knowing the model, knowing the midwife, and knowing the system. Participants had misconceptions and misunderstandings of the model, midwifery, and systems issues relating to midwifery continuity of carer models.CONCLUSIONIncreasing understanding about midwifery and midwifery continuity of carer models may facilitate implementation of these models. A national education program for doctors about the structure and function of midwifery continuity of carer models would support knowledge building for obstetric doctors. Strong leadership and incentivization for health services may be needed to sustainably roll-out rural models. At a service level, responsibility for establishing and sustaining models should shift from local midwife leaders to hospital executives.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) Code provides the foundational ‘values and principles’ a midwife should follow throughout their practice. This article discusses the application of the four pillars of the Code – prioritise people, practice effectively, preserve safety, and promote leadership and trust – to the role of the midwife in antenatal care. In providing holistic care facilitated through communication, a midwife can demonstrate advocacy, accountability, competency and leadership to provide quality, safe care to women. However, following the Code is not always straightforward; organisational demands are often in opposition with NMC values. This article discusses the midwife's duty to reconcile these juxtapositions, fulfilling the needs of their employer whilst upholding the requirements of the professional body.

The problem of midwife scheduling is one of the most frequent problems in hospitals. Midwife should be available 24 hours a day for a full week to meet the needs of the patient. Therefore, good or bad midwife scheduling result will have an impact on the quality of care on the patient and the health of the midwife on duty. The midwife scheduling process requires a lot of time, effort and good cooperation between some parties to solve this problem that is often faced by the Regional Public Hospital Undata Palu Central Sulawesi Province. This research aimed to apply Memetics algorithm to make scheduling system of midwifery staff at Regional Public Hospital Undata Palu Central Sulawesi Province that can facilitate the process of midwifery scheduling as well as to produce optimal schedule. The scheduling system created will follow the rules and policies applicable in the hospital and will also pay attention to the midwife's preferences on how to schedule them according to their habits and needs. Memetics algorithm is an optimization algorithm that combines Evolution Algorithm and Local Search method. Evolution Algorithm in Memetics Algorithm generally refers to Genetic Algorithm so that the characteristics of Memetics Algotihm are identical with Genetic Algorithm characteristics with the addition of Local Search methods. Local Search in Memetic Algorithm aims to improve the quality of an individual so it is expected to accelerate the time to get a solution.

Professional self-esteem (PSE) is the individual’s judgment of worthiness formed regarding the self-attributions related to the individual’s profession. A well-developed PSE is important for midwives to be successful in their profession, have a strong sense of belonging, and see the profession as important and valuable. This study aims to determine the perception of PSE among midwifery students, explain how their perceptions are formed, and reveal how they perceive the midwifery profession and how the components that make up this perception determine their PSE. Students’ average PSE score was analyzed, and the study was conducted using an explanatory sequential, which is a mixed-method approach, to interpret the results of the questionnaire and comparative analysis in more detail through direct interviews with university midwifery program students in western Turkey. Quantitative data were collected using the Individual Data Collection Form and the Professional Self-Esteem Scale. One-way analysis variance and independent sample t-tests were used to analyze the quantitative data. The students with the highest and lowest scale scores from each class level were interviewed using a Semi-Structured Interview Form. Thematic analysis was applied to analyze the qualitative data. The mean PSES score was 117.51 ± 17.60. The t-test analysis result shows that there was a significant difference between the PSES score and choosing the midwifery department willingly, believing that they could perform the midwifery profession before and after starting the midwifery education (p < 0.05). Three main themes were obtained: the meaning of being a midwife, deciding to become a midwife, and the difficulties of being a midwife. It can be said that the main force behind the students’ belief that the difficulties of the midwifery profession can be overcome is their strong love for the midwifery profession and their internalization of its importance.

Many midwives describe midwifery as a calling or a vocation. I never felt “called” to the role but, once I became a midwife 37 years ago, I never wanted to do anything else. Being a midwife has always provided a deeply satisfying and meaningful focus within my life. Similarly, the role of midwifery researcher has provided fulfilment as I explored the world of midwifery and the positive impact that midwives have on the women they care for. For me, research has indeed been a world of fun discoveries. Now, though, it is time for me to refocus my life as I retire from my work as Journal co-editor and midwifery advisor at the College and say, Hello to a new world, one which is free of schedules, time clocks and company rules and where there is time to discover other passions.

Providing clear, accurate and timely information to women and their families is central to the role of the midwife. It is key to empowering women to make informed decisions and promotes both safety and quality of care. The term ‘safety netting’ has been described as sharing information to help people identify the need to seek further help if their condition fails to improve, changes or if they have concerns about their health. While safety netting is a familiar term in some fields of medicine, it is rarely used in midwifery. This article discusses how safety netting could be a useful concept for midwifery and proposes a framework for providing safety net information. The article includes a clinical scenario that considers how the framework supports clear and comprehensive communication, and a student midwife perspective that reflects on different aspects of safety netting, its teaching and the practice experience. Clear teaching of safety netting has potential advantages for midwifery education and practice.

BACKGROUND: Quality midwifery education globally is essential to improving maternal and infant outcomes worldwide.PURPOSE: Determine midwife educators’ perceptions of the need for an international recognition program identifying a midwifery educational program having met the International Confederation of Midwives’ (ICM) Global Standards for Midwifery Education.STUDY DESIGN: A descriptive web-based survey available in English, French, and Spanish. Midwife educators were asked about (a) perceived need for a recognition program identifying programs meeting ICM Education Standards, (b) ability and resources to complete a self-evaluation report, (c) kinds of verification activities expected and needed resources, and (d) willingness of local educators to be trained as evaluators.RESULTS: Surveys completed from 52 countries and all four ICM regions (n = 197) with 14% from low-/lower middle income countries. Majority of respondents (79%) endorsed a need for a recognition program. Most were capable of creating a self-evaluation report (88%), only 18% identified not needing any additional resources. The vast majority favored an on-site process to verify the report with over 81% stating local midwife educators would volunteer to be trained as validators.CONCLUSION: There is a perceived need for an international process that recognizes midwifery education programs that meet the ICM Education Standards.

BACKGROUND: A shift has occurred in the last decade toward preregistration undergraduate Bachelor of Midwifery programs in Australia. This has led to an increase in the numbers of student midwives from diverse backgrounds with limited experience of university and socialization into hospital systems.AIM: This study aimed to explore commencing midwifery students’ beliefs about birth and expectations of the role of the midwife.METHOD: A qualitative descriptive approach was used. All 115 commencing first-year midwifery students enrolled in the first week of an undergraduate Bachelor of Midwifery program were invited and completed a self-administered survey. The survey used open-ended questions to elicit student beliefs about birth and the role of the midwife. Latent content analysis was used to analyze the data set.FINDINGS: Midwifery students’ beliefs were captured within the four themes: birth as “a miracle,” “a woman’s journey,” “a transformative event,” and “a natural process.” Students articulated the role of the midwife as one of support, education, advocacy, and partnership. Student beliefs and expectations were aligned with the emergent philosophy of the normality of birth and woman-centered care within the Australian maternity care context.CONCLUSION: Greater understanding is essential to designing quality midwifery education programs that are responsive to the needs of commencing student midwives. Supporting midwifery students’ successful transition into, and early engagement with the midwifery profession, may have long-term benefits in terms of retention and successful completion of their program. In addition, ensuring professional socialization occurs early is likely to develop graduates who are well prepared to work across their full scope and are willing to participate in the reform of maternity services in Australia.

Introduction. Midwifery is one of the world’s oldest professions. Midwives are found in every corner of the world but the scope of their professional expertise may differ in various countries. Although there are numerous documents listing the midwife’s essential competencies, these professionals have to cope with various problems trying to upgrade their skills. A great example of that struggle could be found in Italy. This is one of the countries where midwives keep on fighting for autonomy. Theoretically, an Italian midwife is an independent health care employee, holding a university diploma and a license. In practice, most midwifes work only in hospitals. Italy is a country with the highest rate of caesarean sections in the European Union. In 2013, the rate was 36.3%. The obstetric care is dominated by gynecologists, whilst only some 3% of pregnancies is handled by midwives. This is due to the poor organization of medical care. After all, the role of a midwife is important in making the childbirth more humanized. There are some actual similarities between the professional situation of a nurse in Italy and Poland. They face similar problems when it comes to the implementation of their activities. Aim. The aim of the study was to discuss the position of midwives in Italy, with special attention paid to the legal standards, the education system and the professional independence.

The authors study the institutionalization of midwife specialization among women in Russia in the period from the 18th through the early 20th centuries. The main sources are legislative acts, clerical documents, as well as reports on the activities of medical institutions and maternity departments. The authors use the approaches of gender history, and the concept of professionalization as developed by E. Freidson. Midwifery was the first area of womens work that was officially recognized by the state. There were three main stages on the way to professionalizing the midwifery profession among women. The first stage (covering the 18th century) is associated with attempts to study and systematize the activities of midwives. The practical experience of midwifes was actively sought by doctors whose theoretical knowledge was limited. The second stage of professionalization (corresponding to the first half of the 19th century) was associated with the normative regulation of midwife work and the formation of a professional hierarchy in midwifery. The third stage (comprising the second half of the 19th century and the early 20th century) saw a restriction of the midwives spheres of activity, as well as the active inclusion of male doctors in practical obstetrics and their rise to a dominant position. With the development of obstetric specialization, operative obstetrics, and the opening of maternity wards, midwives were relegated to a subordinate position in relation to doctors. In contrast to the United States and Western European countries, Russia did not have professional associations of midwives. Intra-professional communication was weak, and there was no corporate solidarity. In Soviet medicine, finally, the midwives subordinate place in relation to doctors was only cemented.

Efforts that can be made to reduce interventions in midwifery services are holistic midwifery care. Holistic care is care using a comprehensive concept so that it can detect early and prevent possible complications that will occur immediately. Midwives as health workers who play a role in maternal and child health are expected to be able to provide care with a holistic understanding of women. The innovation of holistic midwifery care in the Independent Practice of the Palembang City Midwife has not been popular among midwives in the City of Palembang. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, motivation, years of service, training, education, and age with holistic midwifery care innovations in midwifery independent practice services in the city of Palembang. This study used a quantitative approach, with an analytic survey design and a cross-sectional design. Statistically there is a significant relationship between knowledge (0.000), attitude (0.028), and training (0.003) with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services. Statistically, there is no significant relationship between motivation (0.600), years of service (0.705), education (0.161), and age (0.753) with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services. The variable that has the greatest relationship with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services is knowledge. The holistic approach is the most comprehensive approach in health care, so midwives are expected to increase their knowledge and attitudes through training related to holistic midwifery care so that they can provide holistic care in midwifery practice.

Pre-registration midwifery education programmes are quietly undergoing a revolution. In 2019, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) published an ambitious set of proficiencies for the future midwife, defining a framework of skills, knowledge and behaviours that midwives are required to demonstrate at the point of qualification and subsequent entry to the register.1 The revised Proficiencies for Midwives were required to reflect the demands of contemporary maternity services and were based on the framework produced by Renfrew et al. within the Lancet midwifery series.

The history and professionalisation of midwifery has travelled through turbulent times to arrive at an opportunity for transformation in the contemporary UK maternity system. This professionalisation, the midwifery profession and professional autonomy are explored in this article from a sociological perspective, to answer the question of whether a midwife can achieve professional autonomy within the UK system. This is a two-part article. Part one has a strong focus on the historical context of midwifery, government policy and guidelines, risk, litigation and increasing managerialisation to frame the discussion in part two. The second part provides a discussion of autonomy, choice, managerialisation and reflexive practice, to create a conceptual framework utilising the concept New Professional Midwifery. This is to centralise a core belief in midwifery autonomy and women's choice facilitation. This paper is part one of two.

This article explores the importance of leadership and management for midwifery students in their preparation to become midwives. The article combines a review of the existing literature, reflection on the authors' experiences and feedback from midwifery students on leadership and management modules at a university in Brunei Darussalam. Leadership and management skills are essential, and a requisite for every midwife to ensure coordination of structured, safe and high-quality midwifery care. Some important leadership and management competencies include decision making, managing resources, teamwork, collaborating effectively with other healthcare professionals, delegating tasks appropriately and efficient time management. Stakeholders in midwifery education, including educational institutions, public and private healthcare systems and women using midwifery services, expect newly graduated midwives to possess these foundational leadership and management proficiencies so that they can immediately perform their duties when they begin their new role as qualified midwives.

BACKGROUNDThis review builds upon previous work exploring the concept of Midwifery Abdication, within the national midwifery literature. This article focuses on Australian legal literature, court/tribunal decisions and coronial or coroner's court findings.OBJECTIVETo explore Midwifery Abdication and whether it is evident within Australian caselaw.DATA SOURCESAustralian Legal literature, coronial findings, and court/tribunal decisions reported by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, during 2005–2020.ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA1,246 cases were located using the presented search terms. Use of exclusion criteria resulted in the inclusion of 41 cases.METHODSWhile there are no validated tools to appraise caselaw, this review followed a robust protocol that guides the preparation and reporting of systematic reviews. Midwifery Abdication was identified using previously validated, interrelated constructs.RESULTSMidwifery Abdication occurred in 41 cases; that included one or more previously identified constructs. In line with the associated integrative review, a midwife's professional identity, environmental hierarchy and associated culture of social obedience are all shown to act as influencing factors in Midwifery Abdication.LIMITATIONSRigorous and reproducible processes were used; however, limited search functionality of some data sources may have resulted in inadvertent omission of cases. While this review relates to case law in one high-income country it provides a platform for further international research.CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS OF KEY FINDINGSAcknowledging Midwifery Abdication in Australian caselaw may serve to strengthen the midwifery voice and encourage an enhanced educational and reflective focus on midwifery philosophy and decision-making. Midwifery education must empower midwives to embrace their autonomous status while enhancing their abilities to optimize informed decision-making within a woman-centered midwifery philosophy.

Little research has explored how nutrition content in midwifery education prepares midwives to provide prenatal nutrition advice. This study examined the nature and extent of nutrition education provided in Australian midwifery programmes. A mixed-methods approach was used, incorporating an online survey and telephone interviews. The survey analysis included 23 course coordinators representing 24 of 50 accredited midwifery programmes in 2012. Overall, the coordinators considered nutrition in midwifery curricula and the midwife’s role as important. All programmes included nutrition content; however, eleven had only 5 to <10 hours allocated to nutrition, while two had a designated unit. Various topics were covered. Dietitians/other nutrition experts were rarely involved in teaching or reviewing the nutrition content. Interviews with seven coordinators revealed that nutrition education tended to be problem-oriented and at times based on various assumptions. Nutrition content was not informed by professional or theoretical models. The development of nutrition assessment skills or practical training for midwifery students in providing nutrition advice was lacking. As nutrition is essential for maternal and foetal health, nutrition education in midwifery programmes needs to be reviewed and minimum requirements should be included to improve midwives’ effectiveness in this area. This may require collaboration between nutrition experts and midwifery bodies.

Background: Midwives, as an essential part of the healthcare professionals, make a necessary contribution to the healthcare system. They are in demand in developed countries and developing countries like Albania.
Aim: This study was carried out to identify the main factors that influence the students’ decisions about choosing midwifery as their career.
Methods: A quantitative descriptive research design was used to identify the motivating reasons for attending midwifery. This quantitative explorative study was born at the University of Shkodra, Albania, with the midwifery students in February – March 2022. One hundred seventeen voluntary students were included in the study. The data were collected online via a questionnaire prepared from the authors and analyzed with the SPSS software, using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) with the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) test.
Results: It was found that five main domain factors influence students on choosing midwifery as a future career. “Extrinsic rewards of midwifery” and “Employment security over midwifery life” were considered more critical domains. The dominant issues included were about: security, economic welfare, career opportunities, transferring to nursing studies, and more possibilities to work as a midwife in other countries.
Conclusions: The findings of this study provided valuable information regarding motivating factors that attract the new generation to join midwifery in Albania. Understanding why people choose to study midwifery may help managers and educators develop student-focused and enticing midwifery programs.

Until the eighteenth century, midwifery was the sole domain of women, but changes in medical science saw it appropriated by medical men and the ‘man-midwife’ emerged. This paper demonstrates the work of a man-midwife in a small English village in one year, 1775, using his accounts and correspondence. The man was Matthew Flinders Senior, ‘surgeon and man-midwife’ at Donington, Lincolnshire. He was the father of Captain Matthew Flinders, the famous navigator who mapped the coast line of Australia and who coined that name. Primary sources, published as a collection by the Lincoln Record Society, were used. Flinders Senior made a good living from his midwifery, charging rates commensurate with those charged by obstetricians today (with reduced costs for the poor). His descriptions of his practice show how midwifery was conducted in rural England during the development of medicine as a high-status profession. The paper uses data from one year to provide a snap shot of the work of a rural surgeon and man-midwife, but much more is available in the published collection, providing ready access for researchers who may like to pursue such work further.

Background/Aims Globally, there are three pathways to become a midwife: midwifery post nursing, direct entry midwifery and integrated nursing and midwifery. There is limited knowledge on the effectiveness of pre-service midwifery education. The aim of this study was to describe and compare midwifery students' confidence in intrapartum skills and associated factors such as type and level of education. Methods A multi-country cross-sectional study was conducted, where midwifery students were approached in the final months of their education programme. Data were collected using a questionnaire, based on the basic skills by the International Confederation of Midwives. Intrapartum care comprised 40 skills. Results In total, 1407 midwifery students from seven sub-Saharan countries responded. The 40 skills were grouped into six domains; three related to care during the first and second stage of labour and three related to care during the third stage of labour. Sex and age were significantly associated with confidence, with female students and those 26–35 years old having higher levels of confidence. Students enrolled in a direct entry programme were more confident than other students in all three domains of care related to the first and second stage of labour. Conclusions Direct entry was found to result in higher confidence for midwifery students than post nursing programmes or integrated programmes. Further research is needed for evaluation of competence.

Background: Midwives in Aotearoa New Zealand, regardless of the setting, practise within a model of midwifery partnership. Soliciting feedback on practice provides an essential mechanism for midwives to work towards improving their practice. The New Zealand College of Midwives provides such a process for consumers of midwifery services to give feedback on their experiences directly to the midwife, via online consumer feedback forms. Aim: To identify the characteristics of midwifery care that contribute to positive and negative midwifery care relationships within the hospital setting. Methods: A retrospective mixed methods approach was used to analyse the consumer feedback on hospital midwives received between 1 January and 31 December, 2019. Quantitative data from feedback forms were analysed descriptively in combination with an iterative and reflexive thematic approach for the qualitative data. The analysis sought to identify characteristics of care that contributed to a positive or negative midwifery care experience in a hospital setting. Findings: There were 1,284 online feedback forms received for hospital midwives. The majority of respondents who completed feedback questionnaires were satisfied with their care (92%), reporting that hospital midwives provided information/explanations to support informed decision-making (94.0%), that they felt involved in planning/decisions about their care (93.7%) and that they experienced respect for decisions made (93.7%); these characteristics having the highest levels of agreement. Via qualitative analysis, we identified four key themes as contributing to the midwifery care experience in a hospital setting. Positive experience themes included: Building trust quickly, Respecting decision-making and Fostering maternal confidence, resulting in Meaningful partnerships. The negative experience themes were found to be the inverse of a positive midwifery care experience in a hospital setting. Specifically, these were: Not giving time and Judgement and disrespect, resulting in an Unsafe space and an Absence of partnership. Conclusion: The data from consumer feedback forms for 2019 affirm that the quality of the relationship with a hospital midwife is important in shaping the maternity care experience of women and birthing whānau in Aotearoa New Zealand. The characteristics of care that contribute to a positive midwifery care relationship in hospital reflect the principles outlined in the model of midwifery partnership.

ObjectiveTo investigate the status of the midwifery workforce and childbirth services in China and to identify the association between midwife staffing and childbirth outcomes.DesignA descriptive, multicentre cross-sectional survey.SettingMaternity hospitals from the eastern, central and western regions of China.ParticipantsStratified sampling of maternity hospitals between 1 July and 31 December 2021.The sample hospitals received a package of questionnaires, and the head midwives from the participating hospitals were invited to fill in the questionnaires.ResultsA total of 180 hospitals were selected and investigated, staffed with 4159 midwives, 412 obstetric nurses and 1007 obstetricians at the labour and delivery units. The average efficiency index of annual midwifery services was 272 deliveries per midwife. In the sample hospitals, 44.9% of women had a caesarean delivery and 21.4% had an episiotomy. Improved midwife staffing was associated with reduced rates of instrumental vaginal delivery (adjusted β −0.032, 95% CI −0.115 to −0.012, p<0.05) and episiotomy (adjusted β −0.171, 95% CI −0.190 to −0.056, p<0.001).ConclusionThe rates of childbirth interventions including the overall caesarean section in China and the episiotomy rate, especially in the central region, remain relatively high. Improved midwife staffing was associated with reduced rates of instrumental vaginal delivery and episiotomy, indicating that further investments in the midwifery workforce could produce better childbirth outcomes.

ABSTRACT
One of the efforts made to improve the knowledge, skills and competence of midwives is the Midwifery Update training. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of midwifery update training on increasing knowledge of midwives in midwifery services. The study design was a post-test only control group design. The population consisted of an experimental group of 41 people and a control group of 41 people. The experimental group had the midwifery update training in 2019, while the control group was midwives who had never attended midwifery update training in 2019. The experimental group and the control group were selected by using cluster sampling technique after that the sample selection used simple random sampling. Data analysis was used independent samples t -test. The mean knowledge results of the midwifery update group that had never attended midwifery update training was 55.11, while the mean knowledge results of the midwifery update group knowledge was 75.19. Based on the independent t-test, it was found that the t-count results were -8,987 with a p-value of 0.000 (

Background: The midwifery profession in Sweden has a history since the early 1700s when government training for midwives began. Midwifery is historically well described, but the idea of caring within midwifery is not described. Aim: The aim was to describe the patterns of ideas of caring as they appeared in midwifery during the first half of the 20th century. Research design: This study has a hermeneutic approach and the method is history of ideas. Sources of material are taken from the journal Jordemodern (Midwifery), textbooks for midwives, and midwifery regulations. The study has a caring science perspective according to Eriksson. Ethical considerations: This study is conducted in accordance with the ethical guidelines for good scientific practice issued by The Finnish Advisory Board on Research Integrity. The special demands on approach to the analyzed text in history of ideas have been met. Findings: Three themes were identified: Serving as a way of life, Acting in a redemptive spirit, and Having independence with heavy responsibility. The various themes are not refined, but current ideas are woven into the weave that were characteristic of midwifery during the first half of the 20th century. Conclusion: History of ideas is a fruitful method for understanding and re-finding valuable cultural goods. We can once more stress the manner of being within the midwife’s profession where inner values, ethos, shape the manner of conduct in the care of women in childbirth.

The LancetSeries on Midwifery and The State of the World’s Midwifery 2014 called on countries to expand the midwifery workforce as a key strategy to improve the health of women and newborns and lower maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality. Well-prepared midwife teachers and preceptors are required to prepare midwives to provide competent, high quality care for women and childbearing families. This article describes the design of competency-based education (CBE) capacity development workshops building on the International Confederation of Midwives’ (ICM) essential competencies and education standards, led by eight English-, Spanish-, and French-speaking CBE Master Educators (MEs). Common content and processes used in three English, one Spanish, and one French workshop are briefly described, noting the influence of participants’ backgrounds, location, and teacher preferences in modifications to common content. As of December 2016, 30 CBE Master Teachers and 22 CBE Teachers have attended a CBE capacity development workshop and, in turn, have provided CBE continuing education (CE) sessions for more than 300 midwife teachers and preceptors in over 20 countries in the Caribbean, Latin America, and Anglophone and Francophone Africa. Lessons learned are shared along with suggestions for next steps in assessment and evaluation of the use of CBE in midwifery education programs.

This study examines regulatory efforts directed toward black midwives in South Carolina in the early twentieth century as evidenced within the state's Board of Health documents. Using qualitative content analysis and Abbott (1988) and Starr's (1982) discussion of the medico-legal relationship between doctors and the legal profession, I critically examine South Carolina's Sanitary Codes in order to discern the temporal nature of midwifery law in the early twentieth century. I argue that the language within these legislative stipulations governing granny midwives become more restrictive over time in the early twentieth century thanks to antimidwifery advocacy by US physicians and health officials. Further, I demonstrate how the South Carolina State Board of Health ensured that grannies operated appropriately using other black women as midwifery supervisors. This study illustrates how despite the lack of universal laws governing midwifery in the United States in the early twentieth century, South Carolina actively engaged in “rounding up” the midwife using state-appointed midwifery supervisors, increasingly restrictive practice stipulations, and mandatory midwifery training seminars.
