Note:
SAMs 1.1.1--Pregnant women with intellectual or Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) experience greater pregnancy risks and poorer outcomes. These disparate outcomes may be due, in part, to lack of knowledge and skills of primary care providers (PCP) to provide quality care for pregnant patients with I/DD. Thus, the present research study aims to characterize barriers in quality prenatal care experienced by women with I/DD and PCPs’ knowledge and skill gaps when working with pregnant patients with I/DD through in-depth interviews with 30 women with I/DD (and support persons if applicable) who are currently or have recently been pregnant and sought prenatal care, and 30 PCPs who have cared for such patients.
