The Research Proposal: Antenatal Care Experience Improvement Project

This research proposal aims to improve the antenatal care experience for pregnant women in Saudi Arabia, focusing on the establishment of prenatal support groups supervised by locally advanced nurse practitioners. The proposal begins with a literature review, examining factors leading to fatal pregnancies, perceptions of Saudi Arabian women regarding pregnancy and health, and the impact of prenatal and antenatal support groups in other countries. The study identifies gaps in research, particularly the need for studies on the impact of prenatal care under the supervision of advanced practice nurses in Saudi Arabia. The research highlights the importance of antenatal care, including education, screening, counseling, and treatment to promote the well-being of the mother and fetus. It also addresses the prevalence of ignorance among women and adolescents regarding antenatal care and proposes strategies to improve attendance and prevent premature deaths. The project's introduction emphasizes the importance of antenatal care and the need for women to seek clinical assistance. The proposal seeks to address the health inequalities in Saudi Arabia and improve maternal health outcomes.
