大多数围产期死亡发生在发展中国家。发展中国家的实际情况表明,需要实施以证据为基础的、具有成本效益的干预措施,以改善儿童健康结果。在这篇文章中,我们描述了实施和评估组产前护理在伊朗。在发展中国家,由于缺乏支持、文化和传统习俗以及低质量的保健服务,产前护理的实施令人满意,因此,小组产前护理可能最适合这些国家的母亲。我们认为,提供产前护理的小组模式,改善围产期的结果。在发展中国家,这种做法是可行和实际的。
The majority of perinatal deaths occur in developing countries. Pragmatic reality in developing countries dictates the need for implementation of evidence-based, cost-effective interventions to improve child health outcomes. In this article we describe the implementation and evaluation of group prenatal care in Iran. Group prenatal care ideally may be suited for mothers in developing countries where lack of support, cultural and traditional practices, and low-quality health services interfere with satisfactory implementation of prenatal care. We believe that provision of prenatal care by group model improves perinatal outcomes. In developing countries such an approach is feasible and practical.
