Abstract

This study compares the organization of antenatal care in 13 European countries having a fetal and infant mortality rate below 20 per 1000. The countries differ in the number of prenatal visits, the role performed by midwives and the use of home care. It shows that there is no single model of antenatal care among countries having similar fetal and infant mortality.
