Résumé : | Female genital mutilation (FGM) is associated with short- and long-term health complications and is a safeguarding issue. It is illegal in the United Kingdom (UK). Many health care professionals (HP) including midwives lack confidence, knowledge and training in FGM. The aim of this literature review is to describe the main challenges that midwives face while caring for women with FGM. An integrative review was performed of publications from the period 2007 to 2017 included in the Google Scholar, CINAHL and PubMed databases. A final sample of nine research studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and from these, two quantitative studies, one mixed methods study and one qualitative research study were used to critically analyse the resulting themes: awareness and knowledge, and education and training. HP, including midwives, demonstrated a lack of awareness and knowledge concerning FGM, which subsequently impacted the care they provided to women, and the women's experiences. Furthermore, midwives reported the need for more training and education in FGM in order to provide women with safe, individualised care. |
