Living beyond placenta accreta spectrum: parent’s experience of the postnatal journey and recommendations for an integrated care pathway

Abstract

Parents described the challenges of the postnatal period in terms of the physical and emotional impact, and how some were able to make positive life changes in the aftermath of a traumatic event. An integrated care pathway of simple supportive interventions, based on participant recommendations, delivered as part of specialist multidisciplinary team care may assist pregnant people and their support partners in alleviating some of these challenges.
