Raising awareness of #surgicalMesh #SlingTheMeshWales

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

Women from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland are disadvantaged by not being included in the financial redress #Hughesreport Thanks @MeshNorthWales for urging Welsh government to adopt the redress scheme

@susan_bewley @mgtmccartney @TheBMA @sima_kotecha @RCObsGyn @RCSnews It’s hard to tell if Obgyn is worse now than the 1980s because theres no National Audits of Products or Health Care Providers anymore eg there’s never been a Post Treatment audit for Endometriosis or Fibroids
& rare inadequate Mesh audits.+ Hysteroscopic procedures never audited

soul destroying, went for a consult w colorectal Dr. had tvto 2014 which ruined my QoL, I live w chronic pain & rely on meds. Dr said that my only option is rectopexy mesh, when I told him mesh had ruined my life he gave it the ‘it’s not the same mesh’ #meshismesh @MeshCampaign

Everyone who cares about #patientsafety should complete this 6-week govt consultation on a UK Sunshine Payment Act so we can see who's taking money from industry. Please get involved. Read the blog to find out more #slingthemesh https://t.co/JuDFmo6zKS

We’ve lobbied for 8 yrs to get a UK Sunshine Payment Act to force industry to openly declare monies given to Drs, researchers, teaching hospitals & charities - finally Govt is running a consultation @carlheneghan https://t.co/28kxidzdGw

Thousands of women have had their health irreversibly & avoidably harmed from plastic #mesh used by surgeons to treat incontinence & prolapse. Its only right they receive timely financial redress as recommended by Baroness Cumberlege @EmmaHardyMP @PSCommissioner @mariacaulfield

Many thanks to Linda for sharing her story to raise awareness for others on #mesh complications @SlingtheMeshNI

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. Surgeon criticised for dismissing the scale of women’s suffering in the mesh implant scandal. I wrote this in 2018 but in 2023 medics are still dismissing, women suffering @mariacaulfield @EmmaHardyMP https://t.co/rOy8j8wvy9

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

Conflicts of Interest in medicine: taking money from industry without telling anybody, poses a serious risk to research integrity & #patientsafety Its rife & has been a MASSIVE problem in healthcare for decades. It played a huge role in #mesh #primodos scandals @PSCommissioner

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

One of the 9 First Do No Harm recommendations was financial redress delivered using a non-adversarial process. NHS Resolution is NOT the answer as it’s a litigious process that’s stressful & relies on women proving blame @mariacaulfield @PSCommissioner @EmmaHardyMP @APPGFDNH

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

Thanks @mariacaulfield for meeting with #mesh campaigners today to discuss how to improve specialist mesh centres & tackling financial redress to improve the lives of women whose health has been irreversibly harmed @EmmaHardyMP

[Shaun Lintern @ShaunLintern]

Sodium valproate campaigners protest outside @hmtreasury. They are asking for a meeting with @JeremyHunt to discuss redress for victims of the scandal #sodiumvalproate #valproatecrisis

[Fibroid New Research @FibroidNetwork]

We hope emphasis changes from counting nos complaining, to How many Complaints are Resolved & Acted on

High & Poorly resolved complaints indicates Poor Performance in Uro-Gyn

Goal should be to reduce Complaint generators by regular Audit of💊& Surgery Products & HCPs
@APPGFDNH

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

Tell me this #IWD2023 #WomensDay2023 is not a fitting occasion for the Govt @mariacaulfield @SteveBarclay to offer financial redress comfort to women whose lives have been irreversibly harmed by pelvic #mesh surgery where they weren’t warned of the appalling risks @EmmaHardyMP #
