Stillbirth

Philippa Middleton has been working with Vicki Flenady and other colleagues on an international project researching the causes of stillbirth in high income countries, synthesising the evidence for effective interventions to reduce the number of stillbirths and determining stillbirth research priorities using group processes.

Philippa gave an oral presentation on "Using Cochrane reviews to help reduce fetal and other perinatal deaths in high income countries" at the Cochrane Colloquium in Keystone, Colorado, USA in October 2010.

Part of this work was published in the 2011 Lancet stillbirth series, launched via simultaneous media release in London, New York, Geneva and Hobart. Philippa presented an ‘Indigenous perspective on stillbirth' at the Hobart launch.
