Description
We are seeking a motivated Obstetrics and Gynaecology resident doctor to lead a project about postnatal debriefing and pre-pregnancy care following spontaneous pre-term birth. The successful candidate will be expected to register for an MD with University of Liverpool. The Doctor should currently be working at ST3 level or above, although it may be more suitable for a more senior trainee. Doctors both in and outside of a training programme are welcome to apply.
The research component includes project funding and policy support from the charity Tommy's. as well as supplementary external supervision from Professor Anna David (University College London) and Professor Catherine Williamson (Imperial College London). The research component is also supported by health economists at University of Liverpool, Dr Elizabeth Camacho and Dr Ruaraidh Hill.
Project Overview
Short Title: Improving care for Women after Preterm Birth
Full Title: Debrief and preconceptual care services for women who have experienced preterm birth: development of an evidence-informed roadmap to improve health outcomes for women and their future pregnancies.
Women who experience spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) before 34 weeks face more than double the risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies, alongside increased long-term health risks. Despite national recommendations since 2019 for postnatal debriefing and future care planning, no consistent NHS pathway exists. This project responds directly to calls from women, clinicians, the RCOG and national charities to address this unmet need and reduce widening health inequalities.
Liverpool Women’s delivers the highest standards of care for women, babies and their families. It is an exciting environment to work in and a great place to develop your career.
We value the contribution of individual talent and are committed to having a workforce that is representative of the local community. We will consider requests for flexible working
