Monitoring Postpartum Risk Using Information System Decision-Making Support System: A Literature Review
Main Article Content
Abstract
The postpartum period begins after the expulsion of the placenta and fetal membranes and ends when the mother's reproductive organs return to their pre-pregnancy state. This recovery period is the most critical for a woman. Increased maternal morbidity and mortality rates mark maternal mortality during this period. Each year, there are 295,000 maternal deaths and 6 million prenatal deaths during childbirth and the postpartum period. This study aims to find out the health disorders that can be experienced by mothers in the postpartum period as well as information systems to monitor these problems. The study is a literature review of original articles published between 2018 and 2023. Sources were searched using the Science Direct, Scopus, and Proquest databases with the keywords "postpartum" and "monitoring system." Inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to determine article eligibility. The inclusion criteria were articles discussing the high-risk postpartum period and monitoring efforts, published between 2018-2023, and original articles. The exclusion criteria included inaccessible articles, abstracts or reviews, and articles not aligned with the study's objectives. Based on the article search results, 16 out of 6,152 identified articles met the criteria for review in this literature review. Health issues that can arise during the postpartum period include both physical and psychological problems. Physical issues include postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum hypertension, and venous thromboembolism. The most common psychological issue is postpartum depression. Developed and developing countries have increasingly implemented information systems during high-risk postpartum periods. These information systems are developed based on the specific issues mothers face during the postpartum period in each country.
