Conditions

Perinatal mortality in the Netherlands is relatively high compared to other countries in Europe. In the Netherlands, primary care (independent midwives) provides care to low risk pregnancies and secondary care (gynaecologists) takes care of high risk pregnancies. There are a lot of handovers between primary and secondary care. Dutch audits concluded that in this chain of obstetric care process management could be improved. Main causes of perinatal mortality (so called BIG4) are: preterm delivery
