Check this out! 👇🏼👇🏼
Excellent research from @CoombeHospital about #SipTilSend

Well done to all involved!

[Irish Society of Obstetric Anaesthesia @ISOA_Ireland]

More great work from Irish obstetric anaesthetists @AnneDoherty19 & @doireannof !

Research on Enhanced recovery after Caesarean at @RotundaHospital

[International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia @IJOA_Journal]

Has your institution implemented an ERAC programme (Enhanced recovery after Caesarean)?

Implementation of ERAC resulted in
▶️improved ObsQoR-11 scores.
▶️reduced postoperative opioid consumption
▶️shorter length of hospital stay

TIVA in obstetrics - definitely a growing area #OAA2023

@LimGrapes explaining succinctly the paradox of why PET patients are both predisposed to clotting (hence anti-plt therapy) but also at risk of bleeding! #OAA2023

@AliciaTDennis highlighting the importance of TTE in managing the pre eclamptic pregnant patient - helps distinguish between preserved function heart failure and reduced function heart failure #OAA2023

Research opportunity- use of TEG/Rotem in decision making for neuraxial anaesthesia in obstetrics @LimGrapes

[Doireann O’Flaherty @doireannof]

Optimise the preeclamptic mother efficiently preoperatively even when there are pressing foetal reasons

[Doireann O’Flaherty @doireannof]

Looking forward to first talk from @AliciaTDennis on PET #OAA2023

Inspiring to see work on temperature changes in spinals continuing!

Great that Irish research initially lead the way on this! ☘️🤰

When should you do an MRI in patients with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia requiring neuraxial anaesthesia?

Brady et al have proposed a decision-making algorithm!

What do you think?
