Significats de obstetrical patients en anglès

A generation ago physicians were accustomed to see their obstetrical patients only at the time of labor.

These facts are better appreciated than formerly, hence most physicians encourage their obstetrical patients to remain in bed somewhat longer than their mothers did.

Before the advent of "Trained Nurses," obstetrical patients were cared for by "Monthly Nurses," so called because they remained one month with their patients.
