Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the impact of midwifery-led care on birth outcomes in low-risk pregnancies. Research Design and Methodology: Utilizing a qualitative research approach grounded in a comprehensive literature review, this study synthesizes existing knowledge on midwifery-led care. A systematic search and analysis of peer-reviewed articles, clinical reports, and grey literature were conducted to explore the efficacy of midwifery-led care compared to conventional medical care. Findings and Discussion: The findings highlight the significant reduction in medical interventions associated with midwifery-led care, along with the promotion of physiological childbirth and enhanced maternal and neonatal well-being. Key factors such as continuity of care, patient-provider relationships, and cultural competence play crucial roles in optimizing outcomes. Implications: Policy implications include the integration of midwifery care into mainstream healthcare systems, investment in midwifery education, and advocacy for legislative support to ensure equitable access to high-quality maternity care.
