Abdominal Pain in Later Pregnancy

Having caught up with our favourite registrar in Obstetrics & Gynaecology Dr Anna Richmond at UMEC 2018 she came down to the DREEAM recording studio to record a few more episodes with us.  In this first episode she discusses Abdominal Pain in Later Pregnancy including:

  • A definition of later pregnancy
  • The pregnancy related and non-pregnancy related causes
  • The steps taken in managing our patient
  • Blowing Jamie's mind that there's a blood test for imminent labour!!!!!!

Anna will be back to take us through Reduced Fetal Movements in Pregnancy and Ovarian Cysts in future episodes.

Here's our Take Visually for this episode:
