The first time we've seen a written instruction for midstream urine in maternity! Nice work Omnes Healthcare and Amanda-Jane Anderson - makes a real change to see a step towards antenatal urine screening diligence. Good news: from February we'll have something that can help you provide even better maternaty screening with contamination reduced to as low as 0% with no spills, no mess and a clean sample (happy to share evidence).

Did you know that 34-60% of women presenting with UTI are prescribed antibiotics BEFORE diagnosis is confirmed? You can find this and more reasons why a system-led protocol can prevent women joining the AMR frontline, within the pages of our spanking new brochure designed by LUTO RESEARCH LIMITED. Healthcare leaders, please improve women's UTI diagnoses: resulting incapacity impacts everyone and creates repeat visits, adding unnecessary pressure onto GPs. Make midstream mainstream for gold-standard UTI and prenatal screening. #uti #womenshealth #anteanatal #prenatal #urinecollection #midstream #femalehealth #pregnancy #maternalhealth #AMR #sepsis #healthcare #wellbeing Antibiotic Research UK Wellcome Trust The Wellcome Foundation Limited Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation AMR Insights AMR Research The UK Sepsis Trust Sepsis Alliance HCA Healthcare Spire Healthcare Group plc Circle Health Group Cleveland Clinic Harley Street Medical We are Primary Care NHS England Rt.

Announcement! We are delighted to welcome Quiddity Health into the Forte Medical family ... because for the first time in the history of women's health, midstream urine collection for prenatal and UTI screening, has its own accurate, hygenic and dignified protocol. Gavin Matthews and his team will make sure the right people know all about it. Maternal health is incredibly important; accurate urine screening ensures not only good health of the mother, but also her new tiny life, protecting them both from gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, Urinary Tract Infection and more. Designed by an NHS GP for the benefit of his female patients.

The first of a series of announcements from Forte Medical, The Specimen Collection Company ... we are delighted to be working hand-in-glove with the team at All4Maternity to bring #peezymidstream into antenatal screening. Accuracy around prenatal urine tests and prescribing is hugely important. Protein can point to pre-eclampsia, glucose to gestational / maternal diabetes ... and much more. Midstream urine ensures that the right outcomes receive the right treatment - or not: no mother or her foetus need unnecessary antibiotics. Here's a Back to Basics piece all about the value of accurate maternal urine screening. #prenatal #antenatal #midwife #urinescreening #antibioticstewardship #urinecollection #urinesampling #patientcentric #infectioncontrol #patientsafety #diabetes #preeclampsia #womenshealth #maternalhealth The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) David Lawson MCIPS NHS England Dr Ron Daniels BEM Maternity Foundation AMR Insights Antibiotic Research UK The Patients Association European Midwives Association EMA British In Vitro Diagnostics Association (BIVDA) ABHI National Health Innovation Centre (NHIC) Health Innovation Network NIHR (National Institute for Health and Care Research) Abid Hussain Jane Fearnside SomX Quiddity Health Aahuti Rai Pennine Healthcare https://lnkd.in/e3KY-Pc
