- 40. NICE GUIDELINES – May 2013 • Physical Activity: brief advice for adults in primary care –Identify inactive adults –Delivery and follow up on brief advice –Incorporating brief advice in commissioning –Systems to support brief advice –Information and training to support brief advice
- 41. 97% of population are registered with a GP and 88% will visit primary care team at least once per year

In Reality • Challenges – Time – Multiple problems in one consultation – Patient receptiveness – Practitioner receptiveness – Data recording – Access to local facilities • Benefits – Improved knowledge, professionals and patients – Patient centred – Improved health of patients – Dissemination to family – Long term integration into health reviews
- 46. New QOF indicator – 5 points • CVD-PP003(S).

- 47. Future • Roll out pathway across primary care in Scotland • Enhanced services • QOF indicator in its own right
- 48. Winning With Weight In Pregnancy Ante Natal – Victoria Hospital Gwen Smith Midwife
- 50. Complications of obesity in pregnancy/labour • Increased risk of pre-eclampsia • Gestational diabetes increased glucose levels can cause malformation • Increased risk of shoulder dystocia • Increased rates of failed induction • Small for dates • Increased risk of DVT and pulmonary embolism • Higher incidence of Intra uterine death • Higher rate of c/s • Poorer rates of breastfeeding
- 51. Cost to NHS • Extra scans to check for size, malformations and presentation • Extra hospital appointments • Referrals for dietician • Higher induction rates • Referrals for anaesthetics • Increased rates of operative delivery, longer stays • Extra fragmin* both antenatally and post natally • Special clinics for diabetes
- 52. How the group started • Attended NHS health promotion classes, winning by losing, healthy eating, food and health • Walk leader training, bums of seats • All women with a BMI of 30 and above at booking, were offered referral to the group • This was followed up by an invitation, by post to attend the group • The postal invitation wasn’t working only two attended for the first two weeks • Decided to use social media facebook, twitter and texting
- 53. How the group runs • Meeting in local areas for walks – approx. an hour (bums off seats) • Weigh –ins (very competitive) • Drinks and chats • Advice in the form of games, food tasting, discussions based on winning by losing • Dancing if raining – macarena, slosh, time warp, cha cha slide etc • Other members of staff sometimes come along on walks to chat (mobile parenthood) • Can bring other children if childcare a problem
- 54. Facebook Page • Advice- healthy eating , portion sizes, vitamins, appointments • Meeting places each week • Local facilities for swimming, paths for all walks, yoga, relaxation, aqua aerobics • Facilities to ask questions privately, speak to others, requests to join group • Women who cannot attend regularly ask questions and get healthy eating advice, times and locations for other physical activity
- 56. So Far…… • 120 women have attended in last 2 years (as only have 10 per one walk leader) • 5 women have come back in 2nd pregnancy (and maintained weight loss) • Only one incidence of pre-eclampsia • 2 incidences of gestational diabetes • Much decreased levels of both elective and emergency c/s • 1 preterm birth • 95% of all women below booking weight at first postnatal visit
- 57. Barriers • Money, money, money...funding • Had a postnatal group, well attended, stopped through no funding • Staffing, have limited amount of women able to attend because only me. • Education of staff, some staff finding it difficult to approach the subjects of obesity, activity and diet • Only women who can drive or live locally can attend • Time for audit, record keeping – hard to prove the success of the group without all the numbers.
- 59. Testimonials “great support not just for weight management but for pregnancy advice and reassurance and I made good friendships at the group and I’m sure I will continue to be friends with them.” Kirsty “the walking was good encouragement to make the effort to go out and stay active, even when it was difficult near the end. I came in both my pregnancy’s and in the second I joined much earlier for more support.” Isla D “Great class, help at every step of my pregnancy, great class for meeting new people and great for information about foods and a healthy lifestyle for me and my baby. will definitely be there in my next pregnancy thanks.” Donna A “I dont usually walk much but really looked forward to every walk, have kept in touch with everyone and we still meet and walk all the time.” Tracey S
- 60. Hopes for the future • Extra funding to be able to extend into other geographical areas • Help, possibly volunteers, • Clerical help for short periods • An interactive page, where women can ask questions, have facilities to have video tours, a list of all physical activities within their local areas, even short fitness videos to let women in all stages of pregnancy take appropriate exercise
