About SPCERH

The Scottish Programme for Clinical Effectiveness in Reproductive Health is funded by NHS Quality Improvement Scotland, and was launched in September 1997. We are currently in Phase III of the Programme, which started in September 2003 and runs to September 2007.
The over-arching goal of SPCERH is:
To improve health outcomes for women and their families throughout Scotland by promoting more uniform standards of high quality evidence-based reproductive healthcare.

Our principal partner organisations are

Scottish Committee of the Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists
Scottish Board of the Royal College of Midwives
Information Services of NHS National Services Scotland

Much of our work addresses four Priority Areas selected on the basis of disease burden, resource utilisation, and the availability of research evidence to guide practice:

• Teenage Sexual Health
• Interventions in maternity care
• Investigation and management of menorrhagia
• Microbiology investigation in reproductive healthcare
