We started with an incomplete audit.


In a recent exam there was an "incomplete" audit.
The audit was about ECV.
The data was that:
Consultant A offered ECV to one group of women and had an 70% success rate,
Consultant B offered ECV to a different group and had a 30% success rate,
Consultant C did not offer ECV at all.
You were given this data and were asked to discuss how you would go about completing the audit process.

We followed this with 3 vivas:
    uterine inversion
    the uses of magnesium sulphate in obstetrcs
    vitamin supplementation in obstetrics.
