Pre-pregnancy care in general practice in England
PPC was rarely recorded, likely reflecting low levels of consultation for, or discussion of, pregnancy planning. This represents a missed opportunity for maximising women's health, particularly in those with recognised risk factors for poor pregnancy, perinatal and longer-term outcomes
The Moral Regime of Midwifery Continuity of Carer Implementation in England
Since 2016, the National Health Service (NHS) in England has been aiming to implement midwifery continuity of carer (MCoC), a model of maternity care in which the same midwife or small group of midwives provides antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care for women, other birthing people and their babies. However, the implementation has faced significant difficulties. As part of a wider investigation into barriers to and facilitators of MCoC implem…
Can rapid approaches to qualitative analysis deliver timely, valid findings to clinical leaders? A mixed methods study comparing rapid and thematic analysis
OBJECTIVES: This study compares rapid and traditional analyses of a UK health service evaluation dataset to explore differences in researcher time and consistency of outputs. DESIGN: Mixed methods study, quantitatively and qualitatively comparing qualitative methods. SETTING: Data from a home birth service evaluation study in a hospital in the English National Health Service, which took place between October and December 2014. Two research teams …
Synthetic social support
Levels of social support are strongly associated with health outcomes and inequalities. The use of lay health workers (LHWs) has been suggested by policy makers across the world as an intervention to identify risks to health and to promote health, particularly in disadvantaged communities. However, there have been few attempts to theorize the work undertaken by LHWs to understand how interventions work. In this article, the authors present the co…
When choice becomes limited
Choice and patient involvement in decision-making are strong aspirations of contemporary healthcare. One of the most striking areas in which this is played out is maternity care where recent policy has focused on choice and supporting normal birth. However, birth is sometimes not straightforward and unanticipated complications can rapidly reduce choice. We draw on the accounts of women who experienced delay during labour with their first child. T…
Consent revisited
BACKGROUND: Increasingly, the sharing of study results with participants is advocated as an element of good research practice. Yet little is known about how receiving the results of trials may impact on participants' perceptions of their original decision to consent. OBJECTIVE: We explored participants' views of their decision to consent to a clinical trial after they received results showing adverse outcomes in some arms of the trial. METHOD: Se…
