Recently I was asked to talk to the topic “first do no harm” at the RANZCOG ASM - another example of change in practice with possible unintended harms?

How can we best prevent the grief of such unfathomable depth felt by parents whose baby is stillborn? Please consider donating to Stillbirth Foundation Australia so essential research can be funded. Sadly this year there will be 2200 reasons why...

A situation that is at odds with the “new Australian accounting standards” - at a time when the entire globe is looking for research to lead them out of a crisis how can we treat those who ply that trade so poorly
Did you know: When a research grant is awarded, the administering institution has to find an extra 20-40% of the value of the grant to cover overheads, simply so the research can proceed? The Job-Ready Bill removes the source of this overhead funding. That's catastrophic (1/6👇)

Significant practice change has occurred here on the strength of assumed short term benefit - use of late gestation steroids should be restricted to clinical trials until long term harms are excluded @DrKatieGroom
A change from Covid. Data on neurodev outcomes of steroid-exposed term-born children remain limited. Among 4128 discordant sib pairs, steroids significantly associated with mental & behavioral disorder. Time to be more selective?

After a weekend when we paused to remember the sacrifice so many have made for their fellow citizens, we hear in these times of those who would rather put self first and oppose #covidsafe . Download the app, keep us all safe

All pregnant women can be reassured that they will have a support person with them in labour and not be separated from their baby after birth unless it is unsafe.
Are you pregnant and due to give birth soon? Watch below to find out who can be your support person during labour and the process once your child is born. Things may be different during COVID-19 but we want to try and keep you and your baby safe.

Possible early encouragement here for Australia. This episode is a stark reminder to all of us in the acute healthcare sector that primary prevention is always the most effective intervention

An exceptional woman who cared for some of the worlds most disadvantaged women. May her example continue to inspire love, compassion and humility within all working in women’s health
