E7. Unpacking Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy (video)

Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is the most common liver condition due to pregnancy, yet one that still generates a lot of clinical uncertainty. In this episode, host Dr Nisha Khot speaks with experts, Professor Bill Hague, obstetric physician, and Associate Professor Scott White, obstetrician and maternal fetal medicine specialist. Together they delve into the Society of Obstetric Medicine of Australia and New Zealand (SOMANZ) Consensus Statement on Diagnosis and Management of ICP, released in 2023, with the Executive Summary published in ANZJOG. The discussion covers everything from presentation and diagnosis of ICP, management approaches and counselling, the role of ursodeoxycholic acid and alternatives, to timing of birth, monitoring and surveillance, and common misconceptions. 🔗 Resources mentioned in this episode: ANZJOG 2023 – White – Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy Contemporary Management Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy – Diagnosis and Management 📌 RANZCOG members can submit CPD at: https://shorturl.at/iq733 💬 If you found this episode valuable, please rate, review, subscribe, and share it with your colleagues.
