New videos cover basic midwifery skills

We’ve just released 11 videos for skilled birth attendants. They are live-action films with some animation to explain actions that are not visible. The footage was shot in maternities in Nepal, Indonesia, Rwanda, and Ghana.

As with all our videos, we make a special effort to guide trainees step-by-step through a practice, using close-ups and angles that teach more effectively than a live demonstration. We include clinical pearls where possible.

There are five videos on repairing tears after birth, including films on prevention and evaluation. Six of the videos cover basic midwifery skills. All the videos are narrated in English, French and Spanish and can be accessed at this link.
