Kai, J., Dutton, B., Vinogradova, Y., Hilken, N., Gupta, J., & Daniels, J. (2022). Medical treatment for heavy menstrual bleeding in primary care: 10-year data from the ECLIPSE trial. British Journal of General Practice, 72(725), e857-e864. https://doi.org/10.3399/bjgp.2022.0260

Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common problem that can significantly affect women's lives. There is a lack of evidence on long-term outcomes after seeking treatment. Aim To assess continuation rates of medical treatments and rates of... Read More about Medical treatment for heavy menstrual bleeding in primary care: 10-year data from the ECLIPSE trial.

Background: Miscarriage in the second trimester and preterm birth are significant global problems. Vaginal cervical cerclage is performed to prevent pregnancy loss and preterm birth. We aimed to determine the effectiveness of a monofilament suture th...

A randomized trial of synthetic osmotic cervical dilator for induction of labor vs dinoprostone vaginal insert (2022)
Journal Article
Gupta, J. K., Maher, A., Stubbs, C., Brocklehurst, P., Daniels, J. P., & Hardy, P. (2022). A randomized trial of synthetic osmotic cervical dilator for induction of labor vs dinoprostone vaginal insert. American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 4(4), Article 100628. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajogmf.2022.100628

BACKGROUND: Induction of labor is a commonly performed obstetrical intervention. Vaginal prostaglandin E2 (dinoprostone) is a first-choice agent. Mechanical methods of induction are slower in achieving cervical ripening but have a lower risk of adver...

Health Technology Assessment, 26(12), 1-82. https://doi.org/10.3310/BICF1187

BACKGROUND: Mother-to-baby transmission of group B Streptococcus (Streptococcus agalactiae) is the main cause of early-onset infection. OBJECTIVES: We investigated if intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis directed by a rapid intrapartum test reduces mat...

BMC Medicine, 20, Article 9. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-021-02202-2

Background: Mother-to-baby transmission of group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the main cause of early-onset infection. We evaluated whether, in women with clinical risk factors for early neonatal infection, the use of point-of-care rapid intrapartum test...
