Core Tip

Core Tip: The Internet + continuous midwifery service model promotes innovation through integration, breaks the limitations of time and space in the traditional midwifery service supply mode, and enables pregnant women to enjoy high-quality nursing services at home. However, it is necessary to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of the midwife-led Internet + continuous midwifery service model, especially in women with high-risk pregnancies (HRP). By retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of 439 women with HRP, we clarified the positive effect of the midwife-led Internet + continuous midwifery service model on the psychological mood and pregnancy outcomes of women with HRP.
