Treatise on Midwifery: Developing New Principles, Which Tend Materially to Lessen the Sufferings of the Patient, and Shorten the Duration of Labour (Classic Reprint) by John Power (Paperback / softback, 2015)
Excerpt from Treatise on Midwifery: Developing New Principles, Which Tend Materially to Lessen the Sufferings of the Patient, and Shorten the Duration of Labour The leading facts which gave rise to the peculiar opinions which are advanced in the present treatise, arrested the Author's observation during the early period of his professional life. The inferences, which he was induced to draw from them, have led to practical attentions, which have, for several years, proved eminently successful in preventing and removing certain states of protracted parturition; and he has the satisfaction of believing, that he has been enabled thereby, to contribute materially to the safety, welfare, and comfort, of numerous objects of his care.
