Should 'dignitary harms' - such as disrespectful behaviour towards patients - be included within the scope of #patientsafety? Our thoughts are available #openaccess here: doi.org/10.1093/jmp/jh…… Vikki Entwistle HSRU King's School of Education Communication & Society

Absolutely agree with this. The title ‘midwife’ is a protected title - this is dangerous regulatory territory. What is the point of a 3-year midwifery degree programme if this isn’t protected?

1 day to go ! Looking forward to seeing those attending the NEL Maternal Medicine event tomorrow Hayley Martin Kate Wiles Rehan-Uddin Khan Mandeep Kaler ELLY Charity (#weareElly)

Dr Rachel Clarke Not placebo mechanism. The intradermal injections of 0.5ml sterile water causes excruciating pain for 30-60secs, but brings subsequent pain relief, proposed mechanism is Gate Control Theory. If normal saline is used, there is no osmotic effect causing pain, and no pain relief.

Susan Bewley Catherine Roy NICE Edzard Ernst Sorry but how is a well run, multi-centre, international, double-blind, placebo controlled RCT of 1166 women poor evidence? We happily accept many other guidelines based on much weaker evidence. Are we seeing outrage because the study was midwifery-led not medic-led?
