Delighted to report that our paper on the long-term safety of surgical devascularisation for placenta accreta spectrum has been published today.
This technique is easier than obstetricians think and is safe and life-saving for catastrophic haemorrhage.

Severe Placenta Accreta Spectrum rarely needs a vertical laparotomy
We need to stop being driven by ‘obstetric fear’ and start considering the scar each woman will carry on her psyche as a result of the one we inflict on her abdomen
Transverse is safe⬇️

This is dreadful news. I was in a bad way 2 and a half years ago. Practitioner Health responded rapidly, effectively (far more so that Occ Health) and turned me around, and got me back to work. I owe them a huge amount and I know others do too.

Should those who conspire to cover up, or conspire to harm, or
give or cause to give false witness,
be held to account & prosecuted?
Retweet if you think, Yes.
Do nothing if you think they should get away with it.

Yes!! Advanced 3D ultrasound could effectively distinguish uterine dehiscence from PAS as well as determine with high accuracy, bladder involvement in PAS.

Well, who would have thought? Children who lived near Sure Start Centres before starting school did much better 11 years later at GCSE (especially those from low income families).
They worked and helped the poorest. So naturally the Tories trashed them.

Thanks @IJGOLive for publishing our paper on #TeleHealth for accreta. An option to overcome shared difficulties around the world, especially in #LMIC. @RoziAryananda @AccretaResearch @theoadubredu @kfeeze @DrJulianaMD @asnietoc @preventaccreta @PASsquared

Our article on ultrasound screening for PAS in LMICs received enough downloads to be a #TopDownloadedArticle in IJGO. Just shows the significant need for this information.
We need to do so much more work on preventing the first caesarean so that we can stop this PAS epidemic

We work with incredible women in science every single day.
This International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we hear directly from them about what they love most about working in STEM 👇
@MichelleDonelan @AccretaResearch @astro_meganne @IlanaWisby @uksciencechief
The BEST research team in the world! Thank you all for your amazing dedication and incredible hard work (the first 3500 participant study I’ve ever worked on that’s ahead of schedule on recruitment!)🤩
Delighted to be presenting on PAS at the Birth conference in Dubai.

Excellent and very informative lecture on radical pelvic surgery for gynae malignancy by the brilliant @SmHooman and colleagues. Well worth a watch.
