Obstetric care in Third World hospitals differs from that in Britain in several important respects.Skill, drugs, equipment, and finance may be limited, and the large number of patients cared for may make overcrowding a serious problem.Although the emphasis of medical care must be on prevention, complica- tions from neglect, such as obstructed labour and ruptured uterus, are common.In addition, it is important to respect the local cultural practices and customs, and this may lead to modifications in management.
