On Thursday 25 January 2007, the National Collaborating Centre for Women’s and Children’s Health and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists will be holding an educational day to support the launch of the heavy menstrual bleeding guideline. The programme will include discussion of the main recommendations, key priorities for implementation and research recommendations from the guideline. The programme is appropriate for all healthcare professionals and patient groups with an interest in evidence-based practice, and in particular those involved in the care of women with heavy menstrual bleeding.  For further details visit the conferences section of the RCOG website.
