Hi Claire and Others,
I have been following this thread with interest and agree wholeheartedly with the comments and thoughts of everyone. I am concerned this nonsense will make its way to us Downunder in time, so it is great to be forewarned so we can armed ready for this.
Midwives who use IA in everyday practice are skilled at interpreting what they hear and taking appropriate action (normally). Using a decision-making framework, such as ISIA (which can be modified to reflect local guidelines) provides midwives with a robust means of demonstrating their critical thinking and clinical reasoning when using IA (Maude, R., Foureur, M., & Skinner, J. 2016. Putting intelligent structured intermittent auscultation (ISIA) into practice. Women and Birth, 29, pp. 285-292. DOI information: 10.1016/j.wombi.2015.12.001. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.wombi.2015.12.0013.)
I think it is vitally important to teach IA in undergraduate midwifery education and to expose students to the practice of IA in their clinical learning experiences. Indeed, I think the same applies for our medical colleagues who work in intrapartum care.
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. If it is of any use, I am happy to add my name to your letter.
Cheers, Robyn
