RCOG Updates Guidance on Placenta Praevia and Placenta Accreta Spectrum – RCOG
Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) shared a post on LinkedIn:
“The RCOG has launched an updated Green-Top Guideline on the diagnosis and management of Placenta Praevia and Placenta Accreta Spectrum, reflecting the considerable advances in clinical understanding in recent years.
The updated guidance strengthens early risk detection and expands its coverage of Placenta Accreta Spectrum, recognising it as a condition not exclusively linked to placenta praevia or prior caesarean birth. It also includes details on the association between Placenta Accreta Spectrum and other forms of uterine surgical trauma, such as curettage, and myomectomy.
Dr Alison Wright, RCOG President, comments: ‘Placenta Praevia and Placenta Accreta Spectrum can cause serious complications during pregnancy and labour, so early risk detection and good clinical management is vital. The RCOG will be actively promoting the guidance to members and we urge NHS Trusts to embed its recommendations into local practice, enabling multidisciplinary teams to offer the highest standard of care to every woman affected.’
