even mortality. Gas is often present under the diaphragms of
patients with this complication, and is common following
laparoscopy. This study will try to eradicate all gas from the
abdomen following surgery which may allow a simple method for
diagnosing bowel perforation if suspected. |

childbearing women from diverse cultural backgrounds.
|
Centre for Women’s Health Nursing, RHW. |
Stainton C, Strahle A,
Islam S, Solaiman S. |
An analysis of culturally and
linguistically diverse women who delivered at the RHW over the
last three years, indicated a high incidence of antepartum
complication often requiring hospitalisation. The western style
of antenatal education currently offered is usually not well
understood and
accessible to these women due to language and
cultural inappropriateness. A culturally specific video was
produced
to overcome this issue.

Women’s experiences of labour induced for post maturity. |
Centre for Women’s Health Nursing, RHW; University of Sydney.
|
Stainton C, Gatward H,
Strahle A,
Islam S,
Mathew J. |
Induction of labour is commonly used when gestation exceeds 42
weeks. A review of the literature indicates very little research
has been done on women’s experiences of the process and
procedures, therefore little evidence is available to guide
clinical care of the women. What is needed is understanding of
what being induced means to women, what self-help measures they
may use when pregnancy continues to post maturity and what their
expectations are of the process and outcomes so that appropriate
preparation and planning of care can be done. |
