Having children is a science, It is also a craft, As long as a physician can read well, You can cure the disease without hands, but obstetricians can’t do it well only by reading. Obstetricians should have a pair of skillful hands and touch them to know if they can be born. If they can’t be born, they can be born on the way to the operating room. As a result, the forceps can’t be pulled out and they have to operate. The joke is very big.
In surgery, patients only need to lie on the operating table and undergo surgery passively. In internal medicine, it is OK to follow the doctor’s advice and take medicine. In obstetrics, giving birth to children requires teamwork between doctors and patients, There’s a lot of interaction. But, Over the years, In terms of giving birth to children, both patients and doctors have become more and more impatient: cesarean section is required before the expected date of delivery, cesarean section is required when the labor process progresses slowly, and cesarean section is required in order to choose a good day… They have also become more and more insecure: what if they have to suffer two crimes if they don’t come out for surgery in a lifetime? What if the child’s fetal heart is not good during his lifetime? What if I can’t stand too much pain when I was born?
We have made the most primitive and simple thing of giving birth (except for abnormalities between mother and child) too complicated and too medical. We have more than N reasons and means to interfere with normal delivery, no oxytocin for uterine contraction, slow progress of labor, artificial membrane rupture, cervical enlargement, forceps pulling, episiotomy, artificial placenta stripping, etc.
Another thing that makes giving birth too complicated is the strict disinfection management system in the delivery room. Do we really need to be so complicated? Disinfection delivery clothes, disinfection hats, disinfection masks, I once joked with the leaders of the health administration department: during delivery, you can’t control the stool of the parturient (the bacteria in the stool are tens of thousands of times more than those in our hair and breath). Is it meaningful for you to control the hats and masks of doctors and nurses? In fact, we will know how delivery rooms abroad deliver babies. TA people do not wear hats and masks to deliver babies, Just pay attention to environmental hygiene and hand hygiene. But don’t really do it just because I said it. When our health administration regulations have not been changed, you still have to listen to TA’s. Otherwise TA will send rectification notice to you, there will be administrative punishment. In fact, in addition to human beings, no other animals are in such a management of delivery room to give birth to children. Modern medicine makes giving birth to children much safer, but it is not necessary to make normal delivery too medical.
How should children be born? It should be standing, squatting, kneeling and lying down, but not lying down like now. When have you ever seen animals lying down like human beings? Without scientific evidence, you can also understand that standing, squatting, kneeling and lying on your knees will definitely be easier and faster than lying on your knees. The simple concept of gravity in physics is there!
In the matter of giving birth to a child, the parturient should be the heroine, the doctor or midwife is a supporting actress or a supporting actor. Once the doctor and nurse become the leading role, it is dystocia, it is critical and severe rescue. A good obstetrician should strive to be a supporting role, but he should have the ability and confidence to be the leading role at any time!
