'Cervical ripening' - such an interesting term! Are there alternatives we could encourage? How meaningful is it to women? Cervical preparation? Just a thought ....

By the way, I was very impressed with your recent article on women's experiences of cervical ripening: some of my findings very much concur with yours. We have opened quite a can of worms, I think!

We've developed a leaflet which incorporates information and decision support, informed by published data, local qualitative research with clinicians and service users, and service user focus groups/feedback. We're just about to complete an evaluation of this document (leaflet based at the moment but maybe online too by the time we're finished) so I could share it with you once we've completed that early next year. We're considering ways we can make a more generic version of the document more publicly available as part of the dissemination strategy, so it may be that you can just use it as is and modify it to suit your local practices/protocols.

Dear Everyone, I have recently undertaken research into women's experiences of induced labour as part of my doctoral studies. As a result of this, I am working with an NHS maternity unit to develop a Trust-specific decision aid to help women with uncomplicated, post-dates pregnancies make informed decisions about whether or not to accept the offer of induction. This is most likely to be in the form of a pamphlet rather than an on-line resource. I am looking for design inspiration, but have so far not found anything very helpful on the Internet. If your Trust uses one, is it something you could share?
