ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
While this reduced-visit prenatal care model during the COVID-19 pandemic is well-intentioned, there is still a lack of relevant evidence to prove its effectiveness. Therefore, in order to provide new evidence-based medical evidence for clinical treatment, we undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of reduced-visit prenatal care model during the COVID-19 pandemic.METHODS:
The online literature will be searched using the following combination of medical subject heading terms "prenatal care" OR "prenatal nursing" AND "reduced-visit" OR "reduce visit" OR "virtual visit." MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science will be searched without any language restrictions. A standard data extraction form is used independently by 2 reviewers to retrieve the relevant data from the articles. The outcome measures are as following pregnancy-related stress, satisfaction with care, quality of care. The present study will be performed by Review Manager Software (RevMan Version 5.3, The Cochrane Collaboration, Copenhagen, Denmark). Pâ<â.05 is set as the significance level.RESULTS:
It is hypothesized that reduced-visit prenatal care model will provide similar outcomes compared with traditional care model.CONCLUSIONS:
The results of our review will be reported strictly following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria and the review will add to the existing literature by showing compelling evidence and improved guidance in clinic settings.
