Top Tweets for #MontgomeryRuling
This was a reason given to me by a consultant midwife and a consultant obstetrician at OUH in March 2021 when I asked why they don’t fully inform women of the risks of vaginal birth- they don’t want to scare women…
#InformedConsent #MontgomeryRuling
@MidwifeMillar66 @RMatthewsPsych If a big reason you don’t want to tell someone the risks of normal birth is because you think they won’t then opt for it, how is that respecting patient autonomy?
It’s infantilising to believe that we “protect” people from knowing scary things, which they have a right to know.
I think this historical tweet sums it up @believemeithurt…
#InformedBirth = birth that HCPs & antenatal orgs have prepared you for by providing the information they want to provide. Who ensures ALL of the information is provided as per #MontgomeryRuling? Who checks? #BirthEthics
I’ve been thinking about the traditional #normalbirth expertise/focus of #midwifery, a concept that’s. caused contention of late. I propose midwives are actually experts in #informedbirth as we partner with women & families across risk status/birth mode, ensuring they’re informed
@NadineMontgmery @AshokHandaOx @VBPOxford Nadine, in light of #Montgomeryruling what do you make of the info available to pregnant women in #Oxfordshire from @OUHospitals @TeamOUHMat- NO mention of maternal request #caesarean & you can opt for home birth no Qs asked but must consider CS “carefully” for CS 🤷♀️ #BirthEthics
Medicine is the UK is governed by the #MontgomeryRuling which says patients must be warned of all 'material risks' - meaning any risks a reasonable person would consider significant - before their consent can be valid. Do you think this reliably happens with #vaccination?
@HysteroscopyA @morris_ep @RCObsGyn @RCHTWeCare Why would any trust go against the @RCObsGyn guidelines? Or contravene the #Montgomeryruling? The #Cumberlege report clearly states #firstdonoharm. This is failing at the first step; the point where women are entitled to info so they can make an informed choice
@PaulineMHull @RCObsGyn @NadineMontgmery Well I’ve just given feedback using their form that CS (elective if OVD likely or emergency if OVD now planned) needs to be explicitly mentioned as an alternative patient can choose if they don’t want to proceed with OVD.

@mountfordjames @JayMehta50 @LJ_Ali1 @erwinloh @StVHealthAust @harari_yuval That could be true across the board. Click here for mode of delivery anyone.....@ProsserSnelling . Perhaps we're there already #montgomeryruling. Question is that the right thing?
@HysteroscopyA @paulahead_UHS @UHSFT @RCObsGyn @TheBSGE @NHSImprovement @lsutherlandqc @NHSResolution @lynbrownmp No hospital should deny a patient the information required, by law, to make an informed choice! #montgomeryruling

@C4Dispatches Every woman needs to be aware of her rights #hysteroscopy #MontgomeryRuling
@christiplady The question is, in the eyes of the law, is that really worth any less than the much more detailed consent form we sign these days? #MontgomeryRuling I am of course not suggesting we go back to this form, but maybe an interesting thing to think about!
Agreed! As I will be also saying in the @BAPRASvoice #PotterLecture2019. We should not be performing procedures with little or no evidence unless as part of a trial to accrue that evidence. #MontgomeryRuling
Prof Bill Shaw at #ECPCA #ECPCA2019: Medical procedures should not be performed without evidence. More international randomised trials are needed! Thank you Bill for your amazing contribution to Cleft care 🙌
@verguts @fibroidsupport @althurkow @ESGEorg It is no longer acceptable for any #doctor to withhold valuable info on risk or differentiatial diagnosis #Montgomeryruling or to cherry pick or play down risks which are not truly known It is criminal. Doctors can not act in what they think is in their patients best interest
@HysteroscopyA @bsgeacn @TheBSGE Such a great idea. These need to be accessible for all patients. Women are still not being given honest I information nor a range of pain relief. This is a basic requirement #Montgomeryruling
@FibroidNetwork @fibroidsupport @MeshCampaign @ABC @IMMDSReview @OwenSmith_MP #awareness and #informedconsent are crucial prior to all hysterectomy given the serious implications #gynaecologists #cherrypick what info they want to tell you and that is #notgoodenough #Montgomeryruling needs to be enforced to #safeguardwomen #women

Montgomery ruling - text was framed on 1993 Rogers vs Whittaker law (Australia) - interesting case study in impact of #montgomeryruling @IDEALCollab #IDEAL2018
"Members of #RCOG are breaking #MontgomeryRuling by telling women they don't use the #mesh in the media they use tape BUT THAT TAPE IS MADE OF MESH! Isn't that called spin? (copying this tweet from #slingthemesh so I can add my illustration. @Jeremy_Hunt @TheBMA #panorama #tvt
