研究组 & 干预措施
1
Low risk women with expected normal birth are being Randomized to The Midwife-led Unit, with low amount of intervention, No epidural is offered, no medical augmentation available, unless for the active phase of the second stage. If extended surveillance is necessary or if the birth no longer is considered to be normal and needs to be taken over by a doctor, the woman will be transferred to either the Normal Unit or the Special Unit
2
Low-risk women are randomised to this Low-risk maternal unit, The Normal Unit.The unit is organised for low-risk women with expected normal birth. The unit has access to extended surveillance, epidural and operative vaginal deliveries. If extended surveillance is necessary for a woman randomised to this unit, she does not have to be transferred to a higher level of care. Instrumental vaginal deliveries can be carried out at this unit.
干预措施: Normal Unit (Procedure)
3
Women with expected normal births are being randomised to this Special birth unit designed to take care of women before, under and after birth. The Special Unit cares for women with extended need for surveillance, but does also handle low-risk women.
干预措施: Special birth unit (Procedure)
