My research is focused on issues that affect maternal mortality and morbidity and potential interventions to prevent these. I have studied the pattern of injuries during pregnancy and the postpartum periods.
My most recent research has focused on morbidities related to cesarean births. I have also collaborated on studies that explore the effect of provider and practice type on episiotomy rates and timing of births.
Most of my research to date has involved using population-based databases.
Although I have been teaching in Nurse-Midwifery and Public Health educational programs for 25 years, I am a new faculty member in the Department of Family Health Care Nursing.
I will be teaching or co-teaching several courses in the Fall Quarter: N 279 (Family Theory and Practice), N 301.15 (Health Assessment Lab for Nurse-Midwives), and N 282A (Antepartum Complications I).
