Hi
We are currently undertaking a multicentre trial into SWI in Australia, which follows on from another RCT and some qualitative work that we did earlier. The procedure is becoming more common in Australia and is accepted practice in a number of Northern European countries; from the correspondence that I have received from UK Midwives there is certainly a growing interest and some challenges involved in introduction. Lena Martensson and I will be holding a workshop on the use of water injections in labour at the ICM Congress in Prague where we will discuss the supporting evidence, current issues and demostrate the technique.
