Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds Teaching Hospitals Full time

Much of our research in this area has focussed on maternal caffeine and anti-oxidant intake Endothelial biology: studying the role of mechanosensing channels in placental vasculature within the world-leading cardiovascular research group in the Leeds Institute of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Medicine Reproductive Medicine: including pioneering in vitro maturation research and studying implantation biology Our work is collaborative and links in with other leading national and international groups. We particularly value the practical contribution of our research in driving our teaching and clinical practice in order to improve womens healthcare. Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology at Leeds Teaching Hospitals St JamessLGI Antenatal Ward13 beds24 beds Postnatal Ward24 beds24 beds (6 transitional care) Transitional Care Ward13 bed & cots Neonatal Unit24 cots (3 intensive care)34 cots (12 intensive care) Labour Ward10 delivery rooms 2 admission rooms 2 Obstetric theatres 1 bereavement room 4 induction beds10 delivery rooms (4 midwifery led) 5 induction beds 2 Obstetric theatres 3 bedded HDU 2 bereavement rooms Both Labour Wards have a staff room and resource area with appropriate IT facilities. There is an ultrasound machine, dedicated for use on each Labour Ward.

The Consultant body provide 96hr/week cover during which they have no other commitments, currently this entails spending 1 week in 8 on Delivery Suite. There is a Maternity Assessment Centre at both St Jamess and the LGI through which the majority of acute obstetric admissions are triaged. MAC is open 24hrs 7 days a week at both and has considerably improved the service for both women and staff. We are a forward-thinking unit and have established a regional multi-professional training scheme in obstetric emergencies.

We have obtained funding to further develop the service from workforce confederation and have introduced a computerised simulation of delivery suite management to assist in the training and maintenance of labour ward management skills for both midwifery and medical staff. We train midwifery as well as medical staff in core labour ward skills including instrumental deliveries and fetal blood sampling and review our practice on a daily basis as a multidisciplinary team. We have a well formulated and robust risk management system which, in combination with our training and review of practice enables us to continually sustain and even improve the standards of care we offer our users. The Gynaecology Service is centralised on the St Jamess site; the benign gynaecology service is provided from theatres, wards, outpatient and urodynamic facilities within the Chancellor Wing and the gynae oncology service is provided from dedicated ward, outpatient and theatre facilities in the recently commissioned Bexley Wing.

Outpatients In addition to high risk antenatal clinics, there are a variety of specialist clinics run in conjunction with the relevant Physicians on either the St Jamess or LGI site. These include a Cardiac Clinic, Diabetic Clinic, Substance Abuse Clinic, Endocrine Clinic (thyroid, adrenal and pituitary), Teenage Pregnancy Clinic, Prematurity Clinic, Obstetric Haematology Clinic and a Rheumatology clinic. The Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit is located at St Jamess and, although it comes under the auspices of Gynaecology, there are naturally close links between the Obstetric Departments and EPAU. A recurrent miscarriage clinic is run from the EPAU providing both a diagnostic service and support in early pregnancy.

The Fetal Medicine Unit runs clinics five days a week at LGI offering invasive prenatal diagnosis, diagnosis and management of congenital anomalies, rhesus disease including in-utero transfusion and a variety of other invasive therapeutic procedures. The Regional Paediatric Cardiology Service is based at LGI as is the Cleft Service for the Northern and Yorkshire Region. A combined Genetics/Fetal Medicine clinic is run weekly on both the St Jamess and LGI sites and, in addition there is a multiple Pregnancy Clinic at both LGI and SJUH. The General Obstetric Ultrasound Service is led by a Consultant Radiologist and the Unit is staffed by fully qualified Radiographers.

This unit is located separately from the antenatal outpatient are which has four of its own ultrasound machines. Two are within the FMU, two in ANC and one in the Fetal Assessment Unit. Routine fetal anomaly scans are performed between 19 23 weeks gestation. Specialist fetal echocardiography is carried out at Leeds General Infirmary by a Consultant Echocardiography in conjunction with the Perinatal Cardiologists.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE REQUIRED We expect applicants to have at experience in Obstetrics & Gynaecology at second on call within the UK, to have passed the part 1 (and desirably, part 2) MRCOG examination, and to be in possession of an NTN at ST3 level and above. Other desirable attributes include previous research experience. A full listing o
