ERAC at #OAA23ASM, expertly managed by #OBAnes @LimGrapes from @OBAnesUPMC Image
@LimGrapes lays out the objectives of her talk and highlights the model for improvement applicable to #AnyAnes. Great quote! #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImage
What is ERAC? Well, let’s start at the very beginning (seems like a good place to start): enhanced recovery is about quicker recovery and improving outcomes. Most of all it is an APPROACH! #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
Is enhanced recovery for cesarean different? It is still an approach, with similar ERAS components #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
However, there are some modifications to the ERAS components. It’s all in the name. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
Prenatal: limit NPO, Education/ engagement, discharge planning. Intraoperative:preventing hypotension, golden hour, medication optimization. Postpartum: early oral/ mobilization, support breastfeeding, treat anemia. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
What is the evidence? The protocol. GI outcomes? Satisfaction achieved - maybe? #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImageImage
Discharge may not be parturient but passenger related. ERAC improves postoperative LoS, patient satisfaction, breastfeeding rates (maybe a few others). Emphasis placed on 4 interventions, QI initiative implementations successfully met. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
Pain and opioid outcomes good (filled scripts is tricky - that may happen without the opioids being taken?) Similarly nutrition and ambulation. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
Research opportunities for ERAC. How to get clinician “buy in”? Many ERAS protocols have not yet been implemented for cesarean delivery. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
Negative outcomes: best process/ approach? LoS requires further work as not independently related to perioperative #OBAnes or surgery factors. What are CORE outcomes for ERAC? #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
ERAC editorial in @IARS_Journals encourages further studies to identify interventions to improve outcomes, discern best treatment strategies based on real world data, specific populations while engaging different stakeholders. #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImage
A Benjamin Franklin quote to segway to @LimGrapes’ conclusions - ask her a question (on Twitter if you’re brave)? #OBAnes #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage

Prof Donald Peebles on Embedding Maternal Medicine Networks at #OAA23ASM. Knowing who to call is half the solution to any problem? (Touched on by @elsmere_g during #OBAnes session at #Anaesthesia2023) Image
Direct maternal mortality rate per 100,000 maternities had been decreasing over the last 2 decades, but should a remarkable upswing since 2018, not all accounted for by #COVID19. @mbrrace outlined a case for change: most parts of UK have MDT, but make up variable most without… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage

@NoelleHealy (another 🇮🇪 representative - @ISOA_Ireland well represented!) presents on #OBAnes as a team sport - how do we perform better? at #OAA23ASM. Quite an inspiring quote, then setting the stage with @Fionafionakel et al #humanfactors guidelines in @Anaes_Journaltwitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
Why is teamwork important in OB/ #OBAnes? @mbrrace suggests some lessons to be learned. Prompt action is arguably reliant on good communication, within & between teams. Involving consultant/ specialist care early has been a theme for over a decade. #OAA23ASM ImageImageImage
@DOckendenLtd’ final report highlighted “conflicting agendas and poor teamwork” contribute to adverse maternal & neonatal outcomes? So how do we create good teams?

The @JulieAndrews approach may have the hills alive, but for #OBAnes we may need to start at the very beginning,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
