Abstract: During 1982 the American College of Nurse-Midwives conducted a national survey of certified nurse-midwives residing in the Unites States. About 68 per cent of the 1,584 respondents (response rate 76 per cent) were practicing nurse-midwifery. Most of them were providing prenatal and family planning care. The 937 participants who were conducting deliveries reported that they conducted about 1.8 per cent of the estimated 3,704,000 deliveries which took place in the United States during 1982.
