Talking O&G - a RANZCOG Podcast · E24. Recommendations for Embedding Informed Consent in Clinical Practice (audio) · 20 Jul 2026 podcast

Thanks for explaining that.

In labor, birth and emergency situations, circumstances can change very quickly, as we know.

Penny, how can clinicians approach obtaining consent in an environment where decisions need to be made quickly and under stress and urgency may make informed consent more challenging to achieve?

Yvonne, what helps patients feel informed, respected and safe in these high pressure situations?

And how can clinicians help reduce the risk of patients developing trauma from these experiences?

Dep, how do we balance providing enough information for informed decision making without overwhelming patients, particularly during these time critical situations?

In maternity care, obtaining informed consent is often shaped by multiple conversations with midwives, obstetricians and other members of the care team.

And sometimes patients may receive different framing or recommendations from different clinicians.

Penny and Deb, how should multidisciplinary care providers work together to maintain trust and ensure patients receive consistent and clear information throughout their care journey?

Yeah, excellent.

Yvonne, do you have anything to add?

I think

To finish off, do you each have a key takeaway for our audience which you would like to emphasize from today's discussion, Penny?

And Yvonne?

Honey, Deb, and Yvonne, thank you.

It has been a great discussion.
