Brief Summary:
It is an observational, descriptive, prospective, multicenter study of 8 maternity units in Lorraine and Champagne-Ardenne, aimed at comparing the percentage of "avoidable" maternal-fetal transfers (MFTs), defined as transfers in which the delivery finally meets the acceptance criteria of the sending maternity unit, according to the obstetrical indications for these MFTs.
Detailed Description:
Over the past year, an audit carried out on the Mercy maternity unit, covering 130 transfers to the Nancy regional maternity hospital, showed that patients transferred for threat of premature delivery (MAP) with a cervix \> 15 mm do not give birth at the receiving maternity unit, but return home after 48 hours' hospitalization.
When maternal-fetal transfer (MFT) is requested, numerous calls are made to private ambulance services, and in the end, many emergency rapid response units (SMUR) are called out, requiring a major human, logistical and time investment for a questionable benefit to the patient. Tensions in terms of logistics (lack of ambulance, SMUR) and human resources (lack of personnel) can, conversely, compromise good care of the parturient.
