【 摘 要 】

Chapter I: Introduction: Antenatal screening has existed in Glasgow for 70 years. Since the 1930s recommendations of a government committee concerning the pattern and content of antenatal care (1) have been followed. In the 1970s and early 1980s consumers and clinicians began to question the format of antenatal care (2) (3)(4) and in 1982 The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists made recommendations for change. (5) The study described here reviews the community antenatal service in the East End of Glasgow in relation to three of these recommendations on antenatal care.
