S2E3 - Antenatal Perineal Massage Evidence Counselling Strategy
Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!
Antenatal perineal massage is a sensitive topic in the clinical scenario, demanding evidence-based, woman-centred care. This episode equips IMGs with the Level 1 evidence needed: studies show regular gentle massage reduces the chance of episiotomy and perineal pain for nulliparous women. Learn the crucial counselling framework (What–Why–How–Safety–Choice) and the appropriate, non-graphic technique to teach women starting around 34 weeks. Most importantly, we detail how to screen for and avoid critical errors like ignoring contraindications (placenta praevia, active infection) or overselling the benefits. Master this low-risk option to ace your station!
