A new Maternity Early Warning Score (MEWS) to be rolled out across the NHS.
Derived from real data from >1000 pregnancies, it used statistical modelling to set appropriate thresholds for vital signs, reducing unnecessary alerts.

Interesting findings. Potentially some confounders but I think the dose related association makes it plausible. A useful addition to evidence to aid counselling & dose titration, but poorly controlled epilepsy carries much higher risk so pls don't stop meds purely based on this

They removed points for intercalated degrees in the name of widening participation whilst rewarding playing sport at an international level, having money to set up a business & volunteer, and directing plays. Make it make sense😭 Absolutely reeks of privilege

We have thousands of brilliant IMGs working as locums or trust doctors on consultant rotas
Yet @gmcuk make it absurdly difficult to get CESR recognition - even after years working at that level
They should apply the same stringent CESR approach to any HCP for a consultant level post - nurse, PA, radiographer
…but perhaps the foreign doctors need to really prove themselves

1/ VITAL🧵 So people have had a couple of days to digest the DDRBs "independent" reports & their imposition by governemnt.
TLDR;they represent further MASSIVE pay cuts.
Lets start with some history and look at what happened BEFORE the current high inflation
