How do we reimagine support in the first year after pregnancy?

That question is at the heart of Hey Aunty! - a digital platform being developed by @McMasterU graduate student Vedha Viyas Thilagarajan under the supervision of Rohan D’Souza.

Great work by funded researcher Dr. Rohan D'Souza (@SingingOB) at @McMasterU!

Studies on cardiac disease in #pregnancy have defined outcomes differently, reported selectively, and often missed what matters most to patients. COSCarP identifies 12 core outcomes and 12 checklist items to support consistency and relevance.

Big news for #EBM! Just out in #BMJ, ROBUST-RCT, pristinely developed, innovative, simple, user-friendly instrument for risk of bias assessment in #RCTs far superior to anything before, will become standard outside of Cochrane and in #Cochrane if they let folks use it.
