Ep3. Unpacking RANZCOG's New Vasa Praevia Guideline (audio)
In this episode of Talking O&G, host Associate Professor Scott White is joined by Dr Clare O’Loughton and Dr Kasia Siwicki to discuss Vasa Praevia, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition that, when diagnosed early, can lead to vastly improved outcomes for both mothers and babies.
Centred around RANZCOG’s new clinical guideline on Vasa Praevia (C-Obs 47), the conversation unpacks the importance of routine screening, the distinction between vasa praevia and low-lying fetal vessels, and how a patient-centred approach to care can support safety, communication, and planning — especially when clinical recommendations must be balanced with personal circumstances. The guests also reflect on the challenges of providing care in rural and remote settings, where access to imaging and specialist input may be limited.
Whether you’re based in a hospital or a regional clinic, this episode offers practical insights to help you navigate risk and support patient-centred care.
