• Proficiency-based progression training: an ‘end to end’ model for decreasing error applied to achievement of effective epidural analgesia during labour: a randomised control study 

  Kallidaikurichi Srinivasan, Karthikeyan; Gallagher, Anthony; O'Brien, Niall; Sudir, Vinod; Barrett, Nick; O'Connor, Raymund; Holt, Francesca; Lee, Peter; O'Donnell, Brian; Shorten, George (BMJ Publishing Group, 2018-10-15)
