La prise en charge d’un accouchement, qu’il soit normal ou pathologique, rend essentielle la définition d’une conduite à tenir précise pour assurer un encadrement et un suivi optimaux de la parturiente par l’équipe médicale. Pour cette sixième édition, cet ouvrage maintient son objectif d’offrir aux médecins aussi bien qu’aux sages-femmes les indications essentielles pour une prise de décision rapide et efficace. Organisé en cinq parties (accouchement normal, variantes de l’accouchement normal, accouchements pathologiques, complications de l’accouchement et techniques obstétricales), cet ouvrage se compose de 32 chapitres s’articulant autour d’objectifs à atteindre, d’un exposé didactique, d’arbres décisionnels et d’une iconographie exceptionnelle (dessins, photographies pédagogiques et vidéos 3D). À ces derniers s’associent un rappel physiologique et de nombreux cas cliniques regroupés sous forme d’exercices en fin d’ouvrage. Ces cas cliniques, tirés d’observations réelles et comportant parfois des erreurs de conduite, nous ont parus, constituer des exemples, à suivre ou à ne pas suivre, de grande valeur pédagogique. Ce livre tient compte des recommandations pour la pratique clinique du Collège national des Gynécologues-Obstétriciens français (CNGOF) et de la Haute autorité en santé (HAS). Les auteurs ont aussi rapporté les recommandations du Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG), de l’American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) ou de la Société des obstétriciens et gynécologues du Canada (SOGC). Outre des textes entièrement actualisés, l’ouvrage s’accompagne d’un mini-site décrivant la mécanique obstétricale de l’accouchement au travers d’une trentaine d’animations 3D commentées et des cas cliniques.
