Thank you for this recognition of the impact of our work @BJSurgery. Hoping this can translate to change in working practices. @JessWhitburn @surgery_parents @saiful_miah
Please take a look at our study of experiences of pregnancy and parenthood in surgical trainees. Cultural and structural changes are needed to protect our workforce

I wish I could say I was surprised, honestly As we know from the US study, this study confirms those findings. Higher pregnancy loss rates in surgical trainees

It's clear something needs to change and as a community we need to start talking about these problems. Raising awareness will be the first steps of a process to put in place processes to mitigate risks and bring about cultural change so we better support parenthood journeys

Really sad data, we need to do more to protect the obstetric health of our trainees. If eligible please complete the survey below.
37% miscarriage rate in uk urology trainees Our data is coming in and sadly shows this statistic from nearly 100 responses - 15% would be the expected rate in this age group. Please do complete this survey if you haven’t already to increase our sample size @BAUSurology

Can we safely omit a #prostate biopsy in patients with MRI Likert 1-3? How can we support decision to biopsy in this setting? Pleased to present our new paper outlining the results of Cambridge prostate diagnostics. Highlights in the 🧵 1/4 bit.ly/3w0MdyV #UroSoMe

Next step: score external validation on PI-RADS/Likert 1-3 cohorts and comparison to other MRI-based predictive tools. Thanks @ProstateCambrdg @Tristan_Radiol @robymiano @ippoliti_simona @PFletch33 @DokuboIbifuro @CfSpic @saiful_miah for the outstanding collaboration! 4/4
