As examples, quenched versions of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang model and its Pavlik's modification, the Hwa-Kardar model of selforganized criticality, and Pastor-Satorras-Rothman model of landscape erosion are studied. It is shown that the upper critical dimension in the quenched models is shifted by two units upwards in comparison to their counterparts with white in-time noise. Possible scaling regimes associated with fixed points of the renormalization group equations are found and the critical exponents are derived to the leading order of the corresponding ε expansions. Some exact values and relations for these exponents are obtained.

This presented an ideal opportunity to incorporate the new Unicef UK Baby Friendly Initiative (BFI) Standards to enable students to meet the competencies and to support universities in achieving and maintaining their BFI accreditation. The MPLPAD has been designed around four key competency areas: antenatal, labour and birth, postnatal and neonatal care and infant feeding. The competencies were de-signed to meet the learning outcomes for both the Unicef UK BFI UK standards and the NMC Standards for pre-registration midwifery education (2009) Implementation of the MPLPAD has commenced in eight uni-versities. By September 2016 all students in the London region will be using the...

The setting is a Higher Education Institute in the South of England that included final year midwifery students (n=39) and children's nursing students (n=34) taking part in the study. Qualitative and quantitative data indicated that the IPE intervention had proven worth in developing knowledge and confidence in the students as both student groupings felt they lacked knowledge and confidence about perinatal/neonatal palliative care before attending the study day. Students felt that learning with, from and about the other profession represented was important in generating their knowledge. Educators should explore innovative ways to enable the further development of the fledgling speciality of perinatal/neonatal palliative care through education on an interprofessional platform

It has remained uncertain whether or not it has a lot of positive benefits for the students ’ experiences during placement as there have been divided opinions among researchers. Objective and review question: The objective of this qualitative sys-tematic review was to explore the perceptions and experiences of nursing and midwifery students regarding mentorship during clinical placement. The question of the review was: what are the perceptions and experiences of nursing and midwifery students regarding mentorship during clinical placement. Methods and materials: Electronic data bases, journals and grey literature were searched for relevant studies and seven qualitative studies were systematically included in the review. The Joanna Briggs Institute-Qualitative Assessment and Review instrument (JBI-QARI) was used to critically appraise the studi...

Research paper thumbnail of Smoking in pregnancy, where are we now?

The practising midwife, 2013

The harmful effects of smoking during pregnancy have been well documented within the literature (... more The harmful effects of smoking during pregnancy have been well documented within the literature (Eastham and Gosakan 2010; British Medical Association (BMA) 2004). However, although the number of women smoking during pregnancy has fallen over the last few years, this still remains a major health concern for both women and their families. This paper aims to explore recent media campaigns and social policies focusing on smoking in pregnancy and the general population. Midwives need to be aware of current policies with regard to smoking cessation to enable high quality evidence based information and support to be provided at an optimum time in women's lives.

The morbidity of women related to perineal trauma can reveal in perineal pain, urinary or faecal incontinence and dyspareunia. Midwives can adopt many techniques to protect the perineum from injury. However, there are still no clear guidelines regarding the hands-on and hands-poised approaches of perineal management during the second stage of labour. The current evidence remains contradictory, so which technique should midwives adopt?

It challenges the health professional to examine their own practice of obtaining informed consent for procedures they undertake in labour, bearing in mind they have a duty to inform the client of risks as well as benefits. Furthermore, for consent to be legally valid, the client has to demonstrate understanding (a concept that is both subjective and difficult to assess), and it must be voluntary. The author suggests that informed consent to intrapartum procedures should be obtained during the antenatal period rather than during labour itself, when the woman may be deeply distressed by pain and unable to fully make an informed decision.

An aspect of internationalisation is study abroad which the European Commission Erasmus exchange programme is just one means of addressing this. Objective: to explore the experiences of student midwives who are engaged in the Erasmus exchange programme and the effect it has on their learning and working in an international context. Design: approval for the small phenomenological cohort study was obtained from two participating universities: the University of Malta and University of Nottingham. Data were collected from 13 student midwives from a total of five cohorts in the form of diaries to explore their experiences of learning and working in another country. Thematic analysis supported by Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software was used to identify five recurrent themes emerging from the data: the findings of which have served further in developing this programme. Findings: students valued the opportunity of undertaking study and midwifery practice in another culture and healthcare system, extending their knowledge and development of clinical competence and confidence. For some, this was the first time outside of their home country and adaptation to a new environment took time. Support from their contemporaries, lecturers and midwife mentors however, was overwhelmingly positive, enabling the students to feel 'part of the local university / midwifery team' By the end of the programme, the students recognised that they had become more independent and felt empowered to facilitate developments in practice when they returned home. Implications for Education / Practice: this innovative development embracing internationalisation within the curricula has the potential to increase students' employability and further study within Europe and beyond. It can be used as a vehicle to share best practice within an international context, ultimately making a difference to the quality of care childbearing women, their babies and families experience worldwide.

As the IPE literature continues to expand, most studies have focused on reporting learner outcomes, with little attention paid to IPE facilitation. However, a number of studies have recently emerged reporting on this phenomenon. To present a synthesis of qualitative evidence on the facilitation of IPE, using a meta-ethnographic approach. Electronic databases and journals were searched for the past 10 years. Of the 2164 abstracts initially found, 94 full papers were reviewed and subsequently 12 papers were included. Teams of two reviewers independently completed each step in the review process. The quality of these papers was assessed using a modified critical appraisal checklist. Seven key concepts embedded in the included studies were synthesized into three main factors which provided an insight into the nature of IPE facilitation. Specifically, the sy...
