The Postpartum Visit: An Optimal Time for Reflection and Looking Ahead

This issue of Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America pertains to the essential need of obstetricians and their coproviders to reexamine their practices for their postpartum patients. The issue is capably edited by Haywood L. Brown, MD, a past president of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, who had this as a principal focus during his recent presidency. We have accepted the puerperium as the time following delivery during which pregnancy-induced maternal anatomic and physiologic changes return to the nonpregnant state.
