Dear Kirstie,
At The Trust I work for - North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, Hinchingbrooke Hospital we have just trained our first cohort of midwives in hypobirthing which is going to be rolled out to another cohort later this year. Next year we will be offering hypnosis training for labour and birth to all woman antenatally and utilise the skills the midwives have gained in the labour room - labour ward, alongside MLBU and at home. Is this of use to you?
If so I can put you in touch with the lead for this intervention.
Warm regards,
Charlotte Clayton
Clinical Research Midwife

Dear Susan, and colleagues on jiscmail,
Thanks for checking for clarification on this- the key question for our review is to understand better what is known about interventions designed to improve the effectiveness of communication by staff with women in their care during intrapartum care or the immediate PN period.
We do acknowledge that this is potentially quite a wide area for a review, and in our protocol (now on Prospero) we've done our best to anticipate this - our aim is to start broad, and hope to be comprehensive. But the key inclusion criteria are papers or 'grey' reports that present evidence about communication interventions used by maternity care staff (could be any trained or skilled health care professional in any setting), which are designed to improve communication by staff during intrapartum care. In the examples you mention, 1:1 care in labour would probably not be included, as this is not a strategy designed specifically to improve effective communication in labour (although it might potentially have that effect). AN classes would not be included, or any other kind of prenatal education aimed at women, as we are looking for interventions designed to improve staff communication during labour, rather than women's preparedness for labour. Included interventions might involve programmes that have provided staff training or education in communication skills for labour, and then evaluated these.
I hope that helps and have copied in colleagues on the review team, they may want to add something, or clarify further
Best wishes
Kirstie, on behalf of the review team

Kirstie, this may be obvious but what do you mean by 'interventions' in the context of your objectives? For example, 1:1 care in labour? CoCer? AN. Classes? Mindfulness or resilience training for midwives, hypnosis, having a private room where a door can be shut..... the list could be quite large?
Cheers
Susan

Those finding themselves at birth need to pause .. allow the profundity of its meaning to surface and inspire their actions

Subject: FW: Review of infant mortality outputs plus new consultation on birth statistics - postponement of meeting on Tuesday July 25 until September
In addition to the short notice and the fact that we are now in a holiday period, ONS has now announced a consultation on birth statistics. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/livebirths/bulletins/birthsummarytablesenglandandwales/2016#proposed-changes-to-annual-birth-statistics
It therefore seems better to have a combined meeting on the two topics. Possible dates are September 12 or 14.

Subject: Grey literature to support WHO systematic review of effective communication in labour
On behalf of Debra Bick, Yan-Shing Chang, Kirstie Coxon, Marie Furuta and Anayda Gerarda Portela
Dear Colleagues,
We are working on a mixed methods systematic review funded by the WHO of whether interventions to support effective communication between maternity care staff and women in labour could improve birth outcomes and women's experiences of care.
We are keen to identify any relevant 'grey' literature which could support our review objectives to identify and synthesise evidence from studies which have:
(1) Investigated outcomes of interventions implemented by and for maternity care staff working in settings which provide intrapartum care to support, improve or enhance their skills in effective communication with women during labour, birth and immediate postnatal period on identified maternal and infant clinical and other outcomes, including experiences of care and healthcare resource use, compared to usual care.
(2) Investigated experiences, impressions and perceptions of women, family members and maternity care staff in response to interventions to support effective communication in labour, birth and immediate postnatal period
(3) Examined interventions as described in (1) and (2) to identify characteristics of effective communication interventions likely to lead to positive birth outcomes and barriers to their implementation.
Interventions could include health education materials (for example, used in education modules or programmes which are delivered in the classroom, online or via other media platforms), training curricula, training in interpersonal communication, counselling or other skills to enable staff to share balanced information with women (and their families) as a prerequisite to care provision, decisions and interventions.
If you are aware of unpublished PhD theses, conference presentations or reports which present research methodology and research data in full texts and are relevant to our review objectives, please forward any links to access the work or the full texts, together with your contact details to Debra Bick ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) by August 4th 2017.
Any materials/links submitted will be considered by the reviewers, who will have the final decision on what may be included in the final review. Your support is much appreciated!
Best wishes
