Greetings, I am a new user.
I have a woman employee in my care 23/52 pregnant who has been told she
has a low lying placenta. She is a nurse working at a blood donor centre,
and is doing no lifting as with all pregnant woman in this line of work. I
wonder if any of you have ideas about other issues there might be with
regards to this potential complication. I have suggested that she has a
perching stoool instead of bending down to insert needles, and also that
she is not a lone worker, as her job sometimes requires her to stay behind
after all have left waiting for the van to collect the donated blood for
transportation to the processing labs. The RCOG clinical guidance on
placenta preaevia contains mostly clinical guidance for the delivering
doctor, as opposed to advice while pregnant.
Any ideas where to get more info?
Thakns,
Diane
