Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Method: A retrospective cohort design was used. Nablus governmental hospital, Rafidia's medical records were reviewed and data extracted involving 2199 women with singleton pregnancies, residing in rural villages, and their new-born babies born between January 2016 and February 2017. Outcomes were limited to the available information in the hospital's birth registry. Important maternal outcomes were postpartum anaemia (Hb \<11), mode of delivery and induction of labour. Important outcomes for new-borns were premature delivery \< 37 weeks, birth weight \< 2500g and 1500g and referral to neonatal intensive care unit. Outcomes were compared between women receiving the midwife-led continuity model of antenatal care and women receiving regular care.
