Despite technologic advances and the move from home to hospital, maternal and infant mortality rates declined slowly. The slow decline primarily resulted from problems that could have been prevented, such as poor maternal nutrition, infectious diseases, and inadequate prenatal care. These stubborn problems have remained because of inequalities in health care delivery. Affluent families could afford comprehensive medical care early in the pregnancy, but poor families had very limited access to prenatal care or information about childbearing.
Clinical Pathways. Clinical pathways are standardized, interdisciplinary plans of care devised for patients with a specific health need. Clinical pathways identify desired patient outcomes, specify timelines for achievement of those outcomes, direct appropriate interventions and sequencing of interventions, include interventions from a variety of disciplines, promote collaboration, and involve a comprehensive approach to care. Although the concept of clinical pathways is not new, it has only recently been widely accepted as the use of case management has become widespread in various health care settings.
