    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Maternal Health
    • Patient-Centered Care

    Background:

    • Antenatal patients are increasingly involved in decision-making regarding childbirth.
    • Standardized tools like birth plans facilitate communication of patient preferences.
    • Understanding patient desires for labor ward procedures is crucial for improving maternity services.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the content of birth plans submitted by antenatal patients.
    • To identify patient preferences for labor and delivery procedures.
    • To gather insights into maternal expectations for hospital confinement.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of the first 100 birth plans from patients booked for hospital confinement.
    • Supplementation of birth plan data with postpartum questionnaires.

  • Data collection from antenatal patients in Huddersfield.

    • Main Results:

    • The study analyzed patient-documented wishes for labor ward procedures.
    • Postpartum questionnaires provided additional data on patient experiences and preferences.
    • The first 100 birth plans offered a preliminary dataset on maternal expectations.

    Conclusions:

    • Birth plans serve as a valuable tool for expressing patient preferences in maternity care.
    • Understanding these preferences can inform service provision for hospital confinements.
    • Further research can explore the impact of birth plans on patient satisfaction and outcomes.
