NameAntenatal Care in Developing Countries Promises, achievements and missed opportunities An analysis o
DescriptionMost antenatal care programmes in developing countries were established along the lines of those used in developed countries, with little adjustment for local conditions. In recent years, the underlying premise of much that is carried out under the heading of antenatal care has been called into question. It has emerged that few of the components of standard antenatal care regimens have been subjected to rigorous scientific evaluation to determine their effectiveness. This document explores promises, achievements and missed opportunities in antenatal care in developing countries from 1990-2001.
