Neel Shah wrote a Perspective essay in the New England Journal of Medicine earlier this month on the U.K.’s NICE recommendation that encourages wider acceptance of home delivery and midwifery. The question is, could it work in the U.S.?

For the audio-oriented Clin Con audience we’ve adapted a video conversation that took place on Medstro (https://medstro.com/groups/nejm-group-open-forum/discussions/112). There, Dr. Shah and other clinicians discuss the problems U.S. obstetricians and U.S. mothers-to-be face. The Medstro forum is now finished, but the discussions back and forth over the course of its 10-day run are still available at the URL above.
