Upcoming Zoom Webinars, Autumn 2023

This autumn, the OptiBreech Collective will host three webinars to share learning from our on-going research. These webinars are designed for professionals attending planned or unplanned vaginal breech births but are open to all. We will address three common fears and concerns about vaginal breech birth.

Translated caption options will be available.

Thursday, 26 October 2023 from 13:00 to 14:00 GMT

  1. Preventable
  2. Manageable
  3. Unpredictable and potentially catastrophic

Which have you encountered? Would you know how to prevent and/or manage if needed?


Human factors when forceps are needed in vaginal breech births

Wednesday, 22 November 2023 from 13:00 to 14:00

When you have been involved in forceps deliveries of the aftercoming head, how has the communication worked? Did everyone know their role? We will share our learning with you about how to optimise communication and attention when there is a tight fit just at the end.


How to resolve complicated arm entrapment in vaginal breech births

Monday, 11 December 2023 from 13:00 to 14:00
