Obstetric Evidence Based Guidelines, 4th Edition, is a textbook edited by Vincenzo Berghella that reviews clinical evidence for obstetric best practices. Published by CRC Press in 2022, the book presents guidance to help clinicians adopt proven interventions while avoiding ineffectual or harmful approaches.
The volume covers patient care across preconception counseling, prenatal assessment, labor, delivery, and postpartum management. It also addresses pregnancy loss, preterm birth, and complications involving the placenta and delivery.
Evidence is organized into concise tables and algorithms to help practitioners reduce clinical errors. The text serves nurses, medical students, residents, fellows, and physicians practicing in family medicine and maternal-fetal medicine.
