Translating Informed Consent in Maternal Healthcare and Beyond In brief Title - Translating informed consent in maternal healthcare and beyond Organisers - Dr Şebnem Susam-Saraeva (University of Edinburgh) and Dr Jenny Patterson (Edinburgh Napier University) Programme highlights - Nine presentations and a round-table discussion Register for the event on Eventbrite About the event Informed consent is integral to maternity care. Throughout pregnancy, labour, birth, and the postnatal period, the childbearing woman or person, or parents, are regularly required to provide either verbal or written consent for any care, action, or intervention. For people with limited host language proficiency, giving consent without full understanding of the medical language can be a significant issue, especially when the decisions taken have far-reaching consequences for the health of the parent and the baby. Evidence shows that perinatal outcomes for childbearing women or people from minority ethnic backgrounds are much poorer than for those from majority backgrounds. This colloquium is a part of series of events, aiming to understand informed consent from an interdisciplinary perspective of midwifery and translation and interpreting studies.
