Maternity and Infant Care: A Comprehensive Bibliographic Database for Maternity Health Professionals

Since its inception in 1988, Maternity and Infant Care has evolved into a vast bibliographic database featuring over 300,000 references across more than 400 English-language journals and other sources. It serves as an indispensable resource for maternity health care practitioners worldwide who require information to support their research, practice, and learning needs.

This database is meticulously compiled by MIDIRS Midwives Information and Resource Service, encompassing a plethora of topics related to the midwifery profession such as pregnancy, labor and delivery, postnatal care, infant care up to six weeks, feeding practices for infants, and adjustments during the transition into parenthood.

The content spectrum exts beyond traditional academic journals and book chapters to include lesser-known grey literature sources that are crucial in maternity and infant care information gathering - like government publications, clinical guidelines, parliamentary proceedings, news articles, etc.

A unique feature of Maternity and Infant Care is its capability to deliver fast retrieval options through either a code-based search or an index of 570 continually updated topics. This allows users to find relevant information quickly by specifying codes or browsing through topic categories. Moreover, the database also includes responses to articles and commentary pieces that enrich understanding.

With approximately 250 new records added weekly since its update on a weekly basis, Maternity and Infant Care ensures that practitioners have access to current developments in their field.

In summary, this resource is an essential tool for midwives and maternity health professionals seeking up-to-date information across a wide spectrum of topics, thereby enhancing their practice, research capabilities, and educational pursuits.
