Respiratory depression is the boogeyman of ITM - have yet to see a case that implicated ITM as a contributing factor in #OBAnes-doesn’t mean it can’t happen, but likely not at a rate we should preoccupy ourselves with and deliver less than ideal postpartum analgesia - #ITM4all
Granted you have to manage their analgesia for the 24h post op - they are sensitive to additional opioids but multimodal analgesia works. @dr_tgro I will admit that when I was training in SA we did NOT use ITM, 100% a result of fearing respiratory depression

Many of the most influential pioneers and exemplars of #OBAnes through leadership by example have been women: Dr Katherine Lloyd-Williams, Dr Virginia Apgar, Dr Gertie Marx, Professor Felicity Reynolds, Dr Barbara Morgan. A heritage that many others are continuing to contribute.
Inspiring event today at @nyphospital @ColumbiaU
Delighted & humbled to unveil the new portrait of @virginiaapgar with outstanding women @ckoch11koch
@mlanefall @katrinarmstrong and Dr. Brentjens & Dr. Margaret Wood

🚨 The older the sperm, the more likely it is to cause autism
Sequencing sperm using nearly error-free sequencing → measure % sperm carrying disease-causing mutations:
2% at age 30 → 4.5% at 70
Most were autism genes
New paper in @Nature today 🧵

A large, rigorous study published in JAMA last year found no association between autism and #acetaminophen use in pregnancy after accounting for heritability.
Read this new interview with the study’s senior author about the findings. #paracetamol
