GP Antenatal Shared Care Workshop

This workshop, presented by Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department, Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service focuses on common presentations and complications in the antenatal, puerperium and postnatal period.

This workshop will meet the needs of general practitioners participating in shared antenatal care; however, all general practitioners are welcome to attend.

Learning Outcomes:

• Discuss best practice management of common first trimester presentations in general practice, including hyperemesis gravidarum.
