In defense of the obstetrician and obstetrics

California Medicine
R L Hoffman

Abstract

Changes and advances in obstetrics are emphasized by the comparative study of private and one hospital practice in 1939 and 1964. Education, prenatal care, anesthesia, antibiotics, transfusions have all been instrumental. Old problems-abortion, toxemia, prematurity, developmental abnormalities-remain with us. New developments, both professional and economic, some not desirable, face us and demand that active practicing obstetricians take an active role in helping direct their course.
