Informed Birth
Vol. 26 No 3 | Spring 2024
In recent years, the topic of informed birth has increasingly been in the spotlight. At the core of informed birth is respect for a woman's autonomy and her right to make decisions about her own body and her birth experience.
This edition of O&G Magazine encompasses several important topics related to informed birth – from informed choice in reproductive genetic screening to how healthcare practitioners can ensure they’re placing the mother at the heart of decision making. Other topics include informed fetal monitoring for labour and birthing in the age of social media.
Sustainability
Vol. 26 No 2 | Winter 2024
In this edition of O&G Magazine focused on sustainability, we look at how women’s health and sustainability are inextricably linked and how climate change impacts the health of women and babies worldwide.
We meet clinicians and thinkers advocating for a sustainable women’s healthcare system in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand and discover how sustainability in healthcare is being achieved – from carbon-neutral clinics and green anaesthesia to highlighting how breastfeeding can mitigate the effects of climate change.
