� The Beginning: Formation of Canada’s first obstetric
network
� GTA–OBS Network Terms of Reference
� Three pillars of our Network
� Network’s output and measures
◦ Dashboard
◦ Protocol
◦ Communication
◦ Research Projects
◦ October 29, 2013, 33 people from across the GTA came together
◦ Explored the possibility of integrating the TAHSN* and GTA-wide hospitals in a research network which would focus on establishing evidence-based best practice guidelines
*Toronto Academic Health Science Network
The GTA-OBS Network will aim to become an international leader in research, best practices and advocacy in women’s and infant’s health by leveraging the power inherent in its GTA-wide
collaborative approach
� Improve quality and standards of care: ◦ Create and implement shared standards and guidelines to improve patient-
centered quality of care and, ultimately, the longitudinal health of women and babies across the region.
� Conduct clinical research: ◦ Initiate randomized controlled trials and studies that leverage existing
databases (BORN, ICES, CNN), serving as a forum for discussion of our common research questions
� Develop a shared advocacy: ◦ Influence and drive changes in policy related to women’s and infants’ health
locally, nationally, and internationally
� Promote knowledge sharing: ◦ Foster professional and practice development among all members

The GTA-OBS Network is a voluntary association of specialists for
the purpose of shared learning, developing collective insight, advocacy and developing opportunities for collaborative research.
The Network has no formal authority over its members or any of
their affiliated institutions.
Guidelines developed by the Network are advisory, not binding.
Membership is at will, and members may withdraw from the network at any time, however, membership reimbursements will
not be given.
The Network will be responsible for:
� Organizing structured meetings for collective discussion of questions
pertinent to high quality practice of obstetrics to improve practice, develop shared guidelines and spark research collaborations;
� Organizing stronger connections between obstetricians practicing in academic and community hospitals to advance practices and processes, with the goal of improving quality and seamlessness of care;
� Identifying quality and outcome improvement measurements and setting of
targets which the Obstetrics community will aim to achieve;
� Creating opportunities for all members (academic and community hospitals)
to participate as equals;
� Developing useful guidelines to improve standards of patient care across
the GTA;
� Developing a robust, connected research and data collection platform.
