Bedside Clinics in Obstetrics, 6/E for MBBS and OBG PG Students | Clinics to Care with Illustrations | 800+ Original Photographs & 622 Colored Illustrations | Clinical Cases, Viva & Practicals: 1

Bedside Clinics in Obstetrics: Clinics to Care with Illustrations , now in its fully revised sixth edition (6/E) , is our bedside case-based companion for obstetrics, written keeping in mind the requirements of students preparing for theoretical, oral and practical examinations, with content aligned to the latest National Medical Commission (NMC) competency-based curriculum. In this sixth edition every chapter has been extensively revised and updated in accordance with the latest evidence and clinical guidelines, and several new features have been introduced: clinical algorithms in most chapters to promote rapid understanding and clinical decision-making, and high-yield points at the end of every chapter for quick revision and examination preparation. The chapter on instruments has been completely revised and redesigned with a more practical, visually rich and examination-oriented approach to make identification, understanding and recall easier. The book presents individual clinical cases in a systematic sequence, covering case taking, history, clinical examination, diagnosis and management, and the subject matter is presented in a reader-friendly question-and-answer format. Its 59 chapters are organised into 10 sections: Obstetric History Taking and Examination; Obstetric Long Cases; Fetus and Pelvis; Normal Labour; Abnormal Labor; Operations and Instruments; Specimens; Complications of Pregnancy and Miscellaneous; Social Obstetrics; and Diagnostic Procedures. The long-case section works through the cases that actually come up at the bedside, among them normal pregnancy, preeclampsia and eclampsia, placenta previa and abruptio placentae, prolonged pregnancy, fetal growth restriction, pregnancy with prior cesarean delivery, intrauterine fetal death, breech, transverse lie, twin pregnancy, and pregnancy complicated by anemia, heart disease, jaundice, diabetes mellitus and Rh negativity. Each case is built the way an examiner expects it: history, physical and obstetrical examination, investigations, a written specimen summary, provisional diagnosis and differential diagnosis, followed by viva-style questions and answers on definitions, classification, etiopathology, complications and management. Clinical methods, examination maneuvers, modern investigations, partography, ultrasonography, cardiotocography, surgical procedures and obstetric and gynecological instruments are comprehensively illustrated with more than 800 original photographs and 622 colored hand-drawn illustrations, alongside numbered comparative tables, colour flowcharts and algorithms. Dedicated practical sections include exercises on modified partography, the WHO Labour Care Guide 2020, paperless and e-partograph, Identify Your Ultrasonography Plates with exercises on ultrasound findings, and a set of cardiotocographs with their interpretation. Several new topics have been incorporated along with recent Government of India programmes and the latest maternal and child health indicators, including data from the Registrar General of India and NFHS-6 (May 2026), so the content stays current, evidence-based and relevant to present-day clinical practice. Who This Book Is For: MBBS Students: the primary readership, using it through obstetrics clinical postings and then for theoretical, oral and practical examinations, with specimen case summaries to model answers on. Obstetrics and Gynecology Postgraduates (MD/MS/DNB): equally valuable at PG level for structured case presentation, guideline-current management and the specimens, instruments and imaging sections of the practical examination. DNB Trainees: case-based preparation pitched at the standard expected in DNB and university postgraduate examinations. Obstetricians: an invaluable reference for approaching diverse clinical scenarios with confidence while remaining updated with contemporary obstetric practice. Gynecologists: a quick, illustrated refresher on obstetric emergencies, operative obstetrics, instruments and current national programmes and indicators. Why This Book Helps: Answers the exam in the exam's own format: a reader-friendly question-and-answer treatment of every case, with written specimen summaries that show exactly how a long case should be presented. Makes decisions fast: clinical algorithms in most chapters convert dense management text into a single decision pathway for the bedside. Compresses revision: high-yield points at the end of every chapter give a last-mile revision layer without rereading the chapter. Removes the guesswork from practicals: a redesigned instruments chapter plus dedicated specimens, partography, ultrasonography and cardiotocography exercises cover the parts of the practical examination students most often lose marks on. Keeps you current: management is set against named, current guidance including ACOG, NICE, RCOG, WHO, FIGO and ESC recommendations, with Government of India programmes and NFHS-6 (May 2026) indicators for the social obstetrics viva. Key Features: More than 800 original photographs and 622 colored hand-drawn illustrations covering clinical methods, examination maneuvers, investigations, surgical procedures and instruments. 59 chapters in 10 sections, spanning obstetric long cases, fetus and pelvis, normal and abnormal labor, operations and instruments, specimens, complications of pregnancy, social obstetrics and diagnostic procedures. Clinical algorithms in most chapters and high-yield points at the end of every chapter, both new to this edition. A completely revised and redesigned instruments chapter with a practical, visually rich, examination-oriented approach. Dedicated practical exercises on modified partography (including the WHO Labour Care Guide 2020), Identify Your Ultrasonography Plates with ultrasound-finding exercises, and cardiotocographs with their interpretation. Updated with recent Government of India programmes and the latest maternal and child health indicators from the Registrar General of India and NFHS-6 (May 2026).
