The SALVO NewsletterStudy to assess cell-salvage in
obstetrics
Susan Williams (principal investigator) and Sharon Jones
(research midwife) at Singleton Hospital, introduce their SALVO
research team:
As a newly appointed Anaesthetic Consultant and newly appointed
Research Midwife to Singleton hospital, running the SALVO project
on a busy labour ward, which had never undertaken such research
before, was always going to be a challenge. In March 2015 our team
expanded to include 2 additional research midwifes who job-share a
full time post, Helen Worrell and Trudy Smith. Despite many
obstacles and challenges to recruitment, which are surely not
unique to Singleton hospital, we have maintained a good recruitment
rate month on month. This reflects the hard work of the research
team and we were delighted when Sharon Jones was recognised for
this by the ABMU Trust when we were joint winners of the VIP
Chairmans award for Research and Innovation - Promoting Research,
Engagement and application to Practise.
