Opinions of Maternity Care Professionals About Integration of Care During Labor for “Moderate Risk” Indications: A Delphi Study in The Netherlands

Abstract

This study shows that most participants support more integration of care during labor. The lack of consensus among Dutch maternity care professionals with regard to the distribution of responsibilities and tasks for "moderate risk" indications is a challenge. Further studies should explore how to deal with differences in opinions among professionals when integrating maternity care systems.
