It has been announced that the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists will undertake a review of maternity care across the NHS to try to improve safety and reduce the number of stillbirths, neonatal and maternal deaths and babies born with brain injuries. The Avoiding Brain Injuries in Childbirth review will include surveys of staff, interviews with parents and will test best practices for monitoring and responding to woman and babies who get into difficulties during labour. We see first-hand the impact that failures in maternity care can have on families and we welcome all efforts to improve the safety in maternity services.
