چکیده
fairly widely diffused in certain sections of the profession and of the educated public, that the general practitioner through negligence or incompetence is responsible for a large proportion of maternal mortality and morbidity. While preparing this paper I read books on Maternal Mortality and Morbidity by Dr Henry Jellett and Prof. Munro Kerr.

Obstetrical data in great quantity are available from the side of hospital midwifery, but very little information is available in regard to the midwifery of general practice. The activities of the general practitioner are very varied, and amidst the strains and stresses of his life the keeping of records is no easy matter. Further, to amass any considerable volume of data takes a large part of a professional lifetime. I personally, however, am able to draw data from a partnership practice in

Before I do this, it will be useful to take a general survey of the whole field of neonatal disorder and disease, a survey that is based on an analysis of all the live births in the Royal Maternity Hospital in 1934.
