Résumé :
|
It is widely acknowledged that evidence from the Birthplace study (Birthplace in England Collaborative Group 2011) is pivotal in assisting women and families in making choices surrounding birth. Findings from the study are presented in theBirth place decisionsleaflet (Coxon 2014) which is utilised across the UK. It identified that, for multiparous women, birth at home appears to be as safe as obstetric units, and for primiparous women it presents a marginally increased risk of adverse neonatal outcome (Birthplace in England Collaborative Group 2011). Interestingly, the study acknowledged a higher rate of intervention and a lower rate of vaginal births for low-risk women who birth in consultant-led areas (Birthplace in England Collaborative Group 2011) which in itself presents financial issues for organisations and potentially affects women's experiences.
