Deep discussions on perinatal loss

Abstract

Perinatal loss affects some 30% of pregnancies and encompasses ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, miscarriage, and neonatal death. It is extremely rare that psychosocial nursing care is taught or incorporated into a maternity nursing course in which to prepare future nurses how to properly care for the bereaved family found that incorporating psychosocial intervention into healthcare delivery would have a positive impact on parents experiencing perinatal loss. This activity focuses on the understanding of perinatal loss, different modes of grief, and psychological support to families who suffer from a loss.
