The Cave2 and the visualisation of puerperal Infection

Teaching resources for the instruction of midwifery students in relation to normal physiology and potential deviations from normal recovery are limited. Textbooks and images are one dimensional and fail to simulate the physical internal event that take place within a woman’s body after birth.

A visualisation of the normal physiology of the third stage of labour and the puerperal recovery period, followed by the deviation from normal recovery – retained product of conception leading to infection.
