Visiting APT-Sepsis study site in Malawi. Staff told us that implementation of a bundle to prevent, detect and manage maternal infection has led to a dramatic reduction in cases of post-CS peritonitis, a devastating condition often requiring hysterectomy #sepsis @catrionawaitt.bsky.social

Congratulations to @jennymriches who today passed her PhD viva and also published her second paper in @GlobalHealthBMJ in the space of a month! Her thesis has identified key areas where intervention, often simple, may save lives! gh.bmj.com/content/10/1...

We found a high burden of maternal death following CS in this low-resource setting, particularly related to infection. Multiple health systems factors contributed.There is urgent need to develop and trial interventions to improve the safety of CS in such settings #maternalhealth
