Obstetric Anaesthesia: Scientific Evidence Guidelines
The Obstetric Anaesthesia Special Interest Group have created a series of guidelines based on scientific evidence to meet the needs of anaesthetists in our region. It was envisaged that such a knowledge base could have the capacity to not only facilitate the maintenance of high standards of clinical care by anaesthetists but also help disseminate scientific evidence to consumers and to other health professionals and policy makers. With the full support of the three parent organisations a steering group was established and these guidelines developed.
