About this Event

DESCRIPTION


This fully-evaluated study day for clinical skills trainers, obstetricians and midwives will provide an engaging and interactive update on professional skills to facilitate physiological breech births, planned or unexpected, and how to teach these skills to others. The focus is on collaborative, multi-professional working to improve the safety of vaginal breech birth using the skills of all maternity care professionals.

For practical questions about the event or venue, please contact Rosemary Umolu, Midwife at [email protected]



Training will include:

* A research update

* Thorough theoretical and hands-on explanations of how breech babies journey through the maternal pelvis in a completely spontaneous birth (the breech mechanisms), enabling you to distinguish between normal progress and dystocia

* Hands-on simulation of complicated breech births and resolutions, using narratives and videos of real breech complications, to enable you to practice problem-solving in real time

* Models of breech care that work within modern maternity services

* One year's access to the online training course & video resources following the training



No refunds can be issued after 30 days prior to the event, but you are welcome to send someone else in your place. Refunds will incur an administrative fee. Please bring your own lunch.

She leads the multi-disciplinary team that delivers the Vaginal Breech Birth study day at the RCOG. She was a Researcher in Residence at Imperial College Healthcare Trust, a role that focused on supporting health care professionals to begin clinical academic career pathways.
