The abstract portal for the BAPM Annual Conference 2023 is now open for submissions. We are inviting all those working in perinatal medicine to submit an abstract to present their work to delegates.
The conference will bring together delegates from across the field of perinatal medicine including neonatologists, obstetricians, nurses and ANNPs, allied health professionals, midwifes, and many more. This is an opportunity for you to share your recent work with colleagues from around the country and beyond.
What we're looking for
There are three categories of abstracts...
Research (original research or secondary literature)
Includes meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomised controlled trials, cohort or case: control studies, in vitro or animal research, observational research.
Quality Improvement
Includes QI initiatives, service developments, QI literature synthesis and meta-analysis, innovation in healthcare, comparative effectiveness research. A stand-alone audit is considered to be of low significance unless it has generated change which on re-audit can be shown to have shown sustained improvement in care.
Case Studies (series or report)
These describe instances of interesting phenomena. The goal is to make people aware of the possibility that this phenomenon might occur, and may include previously unknown or emerging pathologies, or complication of a therapy/intervention.
How to submit your abstract
Your poster should outline a research project, provide an example of best practice or simply share learning from your unit with others at the conference.
Abstract Submission Deadline: Sunday 9 July 2023 at 11:59pm.
You can view the Presented Abstracts from the 2022 Annual Conference here.
Members can also gain access to our guide to ‘How to Submit an Abstract’.
Judging
Every abstract will be peer-reviewed by reviewers and may be selected for oral presentation, poster presentation or the BAPM Committee walk through presentation. Final presentation of accepted abstracts will require registration of at least one author for the BAPM Annual Conference (in-person or virtually depending on the successful abstract).
Successful/unsuccessful abstracts will be announced the week commencing 31 July.
