Effectiveness and efficacy of antenatal care
Midwifery.
1990 Dec.
Abstract
Antenatal care is recommended to pregnant women to improve the outcomes of childbirth. A common pattern of provision is seen in those parts of the industrialised world which have been influenced by British settlers. This paper presents the evolution of the current patterns of care, and the effectiveness and efficacy of the present system are discussed.
