Congenital CMV e-learning course for midwives banner

Congenital CMV e-Learning course for midwives

As a result of a partnership with Cerebral Palsy Alliance, The University of Sydney, CMV Australia and the Australian College of Midwives, a new free eLearning course: Congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV) – Prevention is in Your Hands is now available. Developed with midwives, obstetricians, infectious diseases specialists, researchers and families who have been impacted by CMV, this interactive course aims to update midwives on how CMV can adversely affect babies and highlight preventive strategies for reducing the risk of infection during pregnancy.

GP e-Learning Module

This Infections in Pregnancy module provides an important update for GPs on congenital CMV and syphilis, both of which can have devastating consequences for the developing baby. CMV is the most common congenital infection resulting in childhood disability in Australia, yet less than 20% of Australian GPs are confident in providing advice on CMV in pregnancy. Syphilis notifications in women of childbearing age have quadrupled between 2015 and 2020. Untreated syphilis leads to adverse pregnancy outcomes in about 50% of affected pregnancies.

eLearning for obstetricians and gynaecologists

Prevention of perinatal infections is a routine part of antenatal care. The What’s new in congenital CMV and syphilis? course is designed to refresh and enhance clinician knowledge. These two infectious diseases can have devastating consequences in pregnancy, and obstetricians and gynaecologists play a key role in their prevention and management. Review current best practice in this module developed in partnership with infectious diseases specialists, obstetricians, paediatricians and families with lived experience.
