Study Touts Benefits Of Nurse Specialist Intervention For At-Risk Pregnant Women And Their Infants.(Brief Article)
2001 SEP 6 - (NewsRx Network) -- Study findings show that a prenatal care intervention in the home delivered by nurse specialists with masters degrees can reduce infant mortality, improve maternal and infant health, and lower health care costs.
These results, from a study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania, appear in the August 2001 issue of the American Journal of Managed Care. The study was funded by the U.S. National Institute of Nursing Research, a branch of the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
Findings show that for those receiving home visits compared with usual care:
* Infant mortality was lowered (two vs. nine deaths)
* There were 11 fewer preterm births than controls
* More twin pregnancies were carried to term (77.7% vs. 33.3%)
* There were fewer prenatal (41 vs. 49) and infant (18 vs. 24) rehospitalizations
