Most of the time I write about research. But sometimes I like to write about ideas instead. This post gathers together some of my musings, often but not always relating to fetal monitoring. Enjoy thinking about different ways of thinking.
Posts with a philosophical leaning include:
- Doctor Who and whether we should be careful messing with timelines.
- Over-diagnosis and CTG monitoring. Dr Who rated a mention in this one too….
- Chris and his fancy Collision Triage Gauge and why his car wouldn’t go. An allegorical tale that might help you to think about CTG monitoring differently.
- Schrödinger’s cat and why CTG monitoring seems to always be the right answer (particularly when it isn’t).
- Red bananas and why the “merit” argument fails.
- Who do you want to be? An early-in-the-pandemic post reflecting on values and choices and whether they are aligned.
- Musings on what it might mean to practice obstetrics like a feminist.
- Taking up Space: reflections on what it would be like to be surrounded by stories about strong and capable women achieving their goals.
- EEG for intrapartum fetal monitoring
- Is that what it really says? When professional guidelines get creative with truth.
