How to prevent infection

When preparing for, and during the delivery it is extremely important to pay strict attention to asepsis and antisepsis because the placental bed is raw and there are a number of areas of injury in the birth passage. These can get infected very readily if microorganisms   are allowed to enter it.

Measures:

Keep any one with a cold, cough, or septic spots on the hands away from the women.

  1. Wear a face mask. If it is not available, tie a clean handkerchief in its place.
  2. Scrub your hands and forearms thoroughly with soap and water for about five minutes.
  3. After the delivery, wash your hands thoroughly again.
