The Stillbirth Centre of Research Excellence has led the development of the Safer Baby Bundle – a collection of change ideas or interventions for healthcare professionals to reduce late pregnancy stillbirth.
The Safer Baby Bundle consists of five elements designed to reduce stillbirth rates after 28 weeks’ gestation.
Element 1: Supporting women to stop smoking during pregnancy
Element 2: Improving detection and management of fetal growth restriction
Element 3: Raising awareness and improving care for women with decreased fetal movements
Element 4: Improving awareness of maternal safe going-to-sleep position in late pregnancy
The Safer Baby Bundle Handbook and Resource Guide has been created to assist with implementation of the Bundle. Free and accredited CPD training for healthcare professionals is also available via e-learning modules.
