Improving health behaviours during pregnancy: a new direction for the pregnancy handheld record

Shelley A Wilkinson et al. Aust N Z J Obstet Gynaecol. 2007 Dec.

Abstract

Obstetric documentation processes may influence the clinical, behavioural, and psychological outcomes of pregnancy, although recent alterations to integrate obstetric documentation with pregnancy handheld records have been unsuccessful. Woman-held records as a companion to usual obstetric documentation have the potential to improve pregnancy-related health behaviours with a demonstrated association with maternal and infant health outcomes, and recommendations for their format and content are provided.
