Association of retroplacental blood with basal plate myofibers
No full textObjectives: Diagnosed clinical abruption showing blood clot should be signed out in the pathology report as retroplacental hemorrhage with or without parenchymal indentation, and submitted clot separate from the placenta should be weighed. In our experience some cases sent as clinical abruptions have been cases of morbid adherence. This study was undertaken to evaluate the association of retroplacental blood with basal plate myofibers (BPMF).
Methods: 156 placentas reviewed by a board certified pediatric pathologist at a community hospital were evaluated for significant retroplacental blood. Basal plates were reviewed for deviations from normal.
Results: 33/156 placentas (21%) had significant retroplacental blood. 21/156 (13%) had a separate clot, of which 11/21 (52%) had basal plate myofibers (BPMF). 11 BPMF‐associated separate clots ranged from 10.5‐60 gms (average 23); while the clots of 10 cases with no demonstrated BPMF ranged from 19‐440 gms (average 82), tending to be larger (p<.03). Basal plate damage prior to delivery was noted in both sets of placentas. BPMF placentas could have myometrial damage prior to delivery.
Conclusions: Since BPMF may confer a risk for accreta in a subsequent pregnancy, submission of a separate clot with the placenta should lead the pathologist to evaluate for basal plate myofibers on H&E, and consider if there is an evidencebased indication to do an actin stain; before presuming a diagnosis of abruption.Peer reviewedAbstract published as Wyand, R.

Multiprofessional working, interprofessional learning and primary care: a way forward?
No full textAcross all sectors of health and social care there is a growing need for collaboration between professionals, agencies, providers and above all with the people they seek to serve. The significant challenge is how to create, within the existing and future workforce, the capability to work in multi professional teams capable of effective collaboration. The intention of this paper is to explore the implications that multi- or more specifically interprofessional learning may have for collaboration within primary care. As part of this, the state of the current evidence base regarding this form of learning will be explored. However, just as this way of learning is but one element in a wider picture of health care, so the focus will also include the implications for a workforce relevant to future primary care.<br/

Cross‐curricular IT tools for university students: Developing an effective model
No full textInformation technology is now recognized as a key study‐enhancement measure in higher education, and there is increasing demand for the provision of basic IT awareness and skills across the whole range of subject departments. One response to this demand is the central provision of a generic IT course or programme of courses. We draw upon the experience of such courses at the Universities of Glasgow and York to identify some of the significant dimensions in the development and operation of generic IT programmes. These include the policy context, the structure, content and educational stance of the programme, relationship of the programme to existing curricula, and the extent and nature of resourcing, assessment and certification. Operation of such courses raises important issues, such as questions of compulsory IT preparation, study skills, staff development, standardization, institutional policy and evaluation. This discussion is set within current trends in higher education
