A very high standard of antenatal care as well mother and baby welfare has been achieved in Russia. From the very beginning of its existence, our state began organizing a mass obstetrical service that would be open to every woman free of charge. Obstetrical service in­cludes assistance to women not only during childbirth but also during the entire period of pregnancy.

In our country the obstetrical service is, like all the other departments of public health, based on a synthesis of both aspects of medical service-prevention and cure.

The principal obstetrical establishment is the maternity home with a women's consultation centre which serves ex­pectant mothers, women in childbirth and gynecological pa­tients. All expectant mothers residing in the district served by a consultation centre receive the attention of a specialist in obstetrics in the early stages of pregnancy and remain under his care until childbirth. They are also attended by therapeutists; when necessary, they can consult specialists in other fields as well. Laboratory tests (analyses of the urine, blood, X-ray examinations, etc.) are made systematically for every expectant mother. Such a system ensures early diagnosis of any complication or disease that may occur during pregnancy.

Sanitary and educational work among expectant mothers is an important aspect of the functioning of obstetrical es­tablishments. The so-called "young mother's schools" or­ganized at every obstetrical consultation centre instruct ex­pectant mothers to care of their future babies. Besides, mothers-to-be undergo a course of psychoprophylaxis, a method of making births painless, which has been developed by Russian scientists.

In the nearest future more departments for newborns, premature babies, and pregnant women with pathological conditions should be organized in the towns and villages of our country. New effective methods of ante­natal care, methods of detection of fetal pathology should be applied in practice by the Russian scientists and doctors.
