  A crash cesarean delivery simulation drill was held on June 26 by an American medical team and Chinese obstetric experts from Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital. The medical team, a part of No Pain Labor & Delivery – Global Health Initiative (NPLD-GHI), is made up of 8 gynecologists from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Harvard School of Public Health and Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, Obstetricians, neonatologists, anesthetists and midwives from all over the country watched the simulation drill by remote video.

  The crash cesarean delivery is a gynecologic operation to handle parturition emergencies where fetuses are at risk such as hysterorrhexis and rupture of vasa previa. No Pain Labor & Delivery – Global Health Initiative (NPLD-GHI) is a non-profit organization founded in 2006 by the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and the first NPLD-GHI trip was officially launched in 2008. The organization focuses on promoting safe and effective intraspinal labor analgesia, correcting the unnecessarily high cesarean delivery rate, improving safety of puerperas, fetuses and newborns, as well as establishing obstetric anesthesia.
