This study is working to predict the chance of a woman/birthing person having an emergency caesarean in their first pregnancy and provide them with choices.
What a summer! Great work by our medical student colleague Vicky illuminating how we should communicate risk....100 icon arrays seems to be both understood and preferred. So much more to learn but we're off to a great start! Thanks @Options_Studyobgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.co…

Public patient involvement groups are a key part of our women’s health research. It is vital that we involve women in the ongoing work to improve the obstetric care they receive. Most recently, we went down to Granby Children’s centre to host a meeting as part of the Options Study. Thank you to all of the incredible women involved and Granby for hosting us! #obstetrics#womenshealth#pregnancy#PPI
We are so pleased to share the newest paper from our research group exploring what happens to women's expectations and knowledge around birth following antenatal education.
Does it precipitate a mismatch between birth expectations and experiences?

I'm delighted that our paper doi.org/10.1186/s12884-024-0… about antenatal education is out! We found that it can contribute to an expectation-experience mismatch. A national antenatal education curriculum is needed!
