I recently attended a conference in Linkoping, Sweden on medical educ
ation, in which
some work was presented about women's and midwives' experiences of vaginal
examinations.
One related to a study of student midwives' experiences of doing VEs,
the
other was
entitled 'empowerment in the pelvic examination situation', exploring
the
experience of
Gynaecological Training Associates, women who volunteer to support the
training of
students in examination procedures.
Barbro Wijma is a gynaecologist who has apparently done a great deal of
work in this area.
Her postal address: Div of OB/Gyn, Faculty of Health Sciences,
University
of Linkoping,
S 581 83, Linkoping, Sweden.
