The majority of maternal cardiac arrests are anaesthetic-related 😳 do we need more than one anaesthetist on labour ward overnight? #YSOA2025 #NAP7

Dr Nuala Lucas is President of @oaa-anaes.bsky.social and is discussing the obstetric findings of #NAP 7 on periop cardiac arrest. Whilst obs accounts for 13% overall anaesthetic workload, overnight it rises to 70%! Is one anaesthetist enough overnight on labour ward? #YSOA2025
