Doctoral thesis
Ageeth Rosman was awarded her PhD at the University of Amsterdam on 3 September 2014 on research into improving breech presentation policy, in particular the external version in breech presentation. The title of the thesis was 'Improving management of breech presentation at term'. The research focused on the (re)implementation of the external version because previous research had shown that this proven safe and effective handgrip was not sufficiently applied in breech presentation from 36 weeks.
