Novel Content No.2 at #SOAPAM2023 virtual #OBAnes highlights Day 2: @DoctorStahl speaks on Obstetric Critical Care #OBCritCare ImageImage
@DoctorStahl is an intensive care bear, who loves #OBAnes. QR code to references. #OBCritCare #SOAPAM2023 ImageImageImage
Pregnancy-associated mortality ≈ maternal mortality. #OBAnes 0.2% - doing well (wonder what the denominator is?), so Elmo could ask why are we worried? #SOAPAM2023 ImageImageImage

Prof Donald Peebles on Embedding Maternal Medicine Networks at #OAA23ASM. Knowing who to call is half the solution to any problem? (Touched on by @elsmere_g during #OBAnes session at #Anaesthesia2023) Image
Direct maternal mortality rate per 100,000 maternities had been decreasing over the last 2 decades, but should a remarkable upswing since 2018, not all accounted for by #COVID19. @mbrrace outlined a case for change: most parts of UK have MDT, but make up variable most without… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage

Dr Neel Desai provides an Update on Anesthesia for Cesarean Delivery at #OAA23ASM #OBAnes Image
Starting with the mainstays: choice of local anaesthetic and intrathecal morphine. Prilocaine 2% has compared favourably with bupivacaine 0.5%. However, there are caveats: if prilocaine is to be considered for routine #OBAnes it is recommended a CSE be used. ITM does NOT prevent… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
The very topical: inadequate neuraxial anaesthesia for cesarean section. See lectures from @hnixon147 and @PervezSultanMD from recent @SOAPHQ annual meeting elsewhere on my timeline - this is a widespread concern. @Jamesocarroll has initiated a large multicentre trial through the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage

Bill Kirkup presents on the independent investigation into East Kent Maternity Services at #Anaesthesia2023 #OBAnes ImageImage
Battled with how to put “In their own words…” together. 4 slides at a time doesn’t cut it. It was a very emotive experience. So I hope this works (Twitter Blue perk)

In their own words: FAMILIES.

Midwives, not nurses. They cut me open (@HofkampMichael @emilysharpe @ruthi_landau). He’s singing, then he died. We don’t talk about cesareans. Physician: I’m the doctor. Midwife: we won’t be doing that.

And that last one… apropos of @SQuashie’s… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@DOckendenLtd presents at #Anaesthesia2023 on the Ockenden Report - a year on, have we made progress? #OBAnes ImageImage
What were the key messages of the Ockenden Report from @DOckendenLtd? Final report March 2022 (distributed amongst #OBAnes at @IWKHealth @DalAnesthesia - learnings valuable even across the pond): failures of quality of care & governance; failure of external bodies to monitor;… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImageImage

And Nottingham? Maternity review is underway… themes continue.

@SQuashie presents on ethnic disparities in #OBAnes outcomes at #Anaesthesia2023… lots in lead up to #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
A break down of the objectives of the talk. Census data demonstrates increases in all minorities, nationally and locally. Definitions: What is a health disparity? >10% health difference closely linked to disparity. Inequality, equality, equity and justice are linked.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImageImage
Race vs ethnicity - an important difference. Maternal inequalities have been subject of several reports, resulting in Maternal Disparities Taskforce and Equity & Equality guidance. Reducing inequalities focus on CORE20PLUS5: the most deprived 20% with 5 key clinical areas… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage

@elsmere_g presents on Maternal Medicine at #Anaesthesia2023. Pregnancy is stressful - it will unmask disease. Pick up the phone. Why are we worried? #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImageImage
When looking at @mbrrace reports the UK has shown some improvements in maternal mortality, however, there has been an uptick since 2018. While this is partly accounted for by a changing maternal population (older, more obese, more comorbidities, etc), start inequalities related… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
Majority are indirect deaths. #OBAnes contributes only a small amount (not to be ignored though). Everyone has a role to play in improving maternity care and reducing mortality & morbidity. Remember majority of deaths occur AFTER delivery - recent pregnancy history shouldn’t be… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
