  • The PROMPTCast - Episode 6: Undergraduate PROMPT, Maternal collapse and Maternity safety
    Jul 5 2024

    Undergraduate PROMPT

    We speak to Dr Melanie Griffin, University of Bristol, and Jemma Walker, University of the West of England about their experience of delivering Undergraduate PROMPT. Both are experienced educators and offer a lot of advice and hints about their practical experience of Undergraduate PROMPT training and how this package has grown for them since 2019.

    Undergraduate PROMPT is specifically designed for maternity students (student midwives and medical students). However, the themes covered in this package could easily be adapted for other medical emergency situations; the skills and teamworking required to manage each scenario are likely to be transferable to other specialties.

    Maternal collapse

    Maternal collapse is covered in the Annual Update 2022/23 content. We chat to Dr Neil Muchatuta, anaesthetist, and Dr Sharan Athwal, obstetrician, about this obstetric emergency. The Annual Update content includes a Supplementary Reading chapter on the topic, Module Booklet for a practical simulation, PowerPoint slides for your local team to adapt and a recorded presentation to act as a serving suggestion for presenters.

  • The PROMPTCast - Episode 5: Community PROMPT, Cord prolapse, PROMPT Global, Perth interviews
    May 10 2024

    Community PROMPT

    We speak to Ellie Smith and India Doggett, Education midwives from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, about the Community PROMPT package. After collaborating with the PROMPT Wales team, Community PROMPT was released as a stand-alone training package for midwife-led teams wishing to run local maternity emergencies training in community settings. The package is included as part of our second Annual Update 2022/23. The Community PROMPT facilitators kit and accompanying digital resources (accessed via our Learning Management System), provide all of the tools to support teams in planning, facilitating and reviewing their training in community settings.

    PROMPT Global

    In 2023 the PROMPT Maternity Foundation launched our new PROMPT Global training package for international teams (outside of the UK and Ireland), containing training resources incorporating the latest evidence and UK national guidance. The package also includes the new PROMPT Global Implementation (iPROMPT) programme. To hear more about iPROMPT you can listen back to our first episode of the PROMPTCast.

    The PROMPT Global obstetric emergencies training package is intended for use by multi-professional training teams who would like to adapt and run PROMPT courses locally, in their own unit/institution. We chat to Tim Draycott and Mark James to hear more about the PROMPT Global package.

    Perth interviews

    During the PROMPT Global Showcase in October 2023 we spoke to local teams in Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania about their local PROMPT training. This was an amazing day and brilliant to speak to some inspiring local PROMPT trainers.

  • The PROMPTCast - Episode 4: Equity and equality
    Mar 23 2024

    This episode we bring you a longer interview on Equity and Equality in the context of maternity care.

    MBRRACE-UK released figures in 2022 that Black women are 3.7 times more likely to die in pregnancy while and Asian women are 1.8 times more likely to die, both when compared to White women.

    https://www.npeu.ox.ac.uk/mbrrace-uk/reports

    More recently, in 2023 MBRRACE-UK released two publications, one comparing the care of Asian and White women who have experienced a still birth or neonatal death and the other comparing Black and White women who have experienced a stillbirth or neonatal death. These reports highlight issues including ethnicity, nationality and citizenship not always being recorded well. Interpreters not always being available, lower rates of screening for gestational diabetes, difficulties accessing care and women being less likely to receive a letter about follow-up.

    https://timms.le.ac.uk/mbrrace-uk-perinatal-mortality/confidential-enquiries/

    We speak to Katie Donovan-Adekanmbi and Aisha Thomas about their involvement in Black Maternity Matters from Health Innovations West of England.

    “Black Maternity Matters is a ground-breaking collaboration, supporting midwives to reduce the inequitable maternity outcomes faced by Black mothers and their babies. It will support maternity systems to offer safer, equitable care for all.”

    https://www.healthinnowest.net/our-work/transforming-services-and-systems/black-maternity-matters/

    Equity and Equality is covered in the PROMPT Annual Update 2022/23 in our Supplementary Reading Booklet and PowerPoint presentation, including a narrated version with ideas for local adaptation.
