Abstract
Introduction: The COVID 19 pandemic provokes the healthcare system evolution to digital transformation for monitoring and management, particularly in delivering essential health services such as maternal healthcare. This review aimed to identify the determinants of maternal perception of the COVID 19 pandemic on antenatal health care services.
Methods: SCOPUS, Web of Science, SAGE, Ovid, and MEDLINE were systematically searched for published articles from January 2020 to June 2021. Eligible articles were assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Out of 278 articles identified, eight articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included for narrative synthesis.
Results: Five themes emerged on the determinants of maternal perception on antenatal healthcare services and related to COVID 19 pandemic: lack of psychosocial supports, poor quality of maternal health care, poor insight on virtual consultation, failure of health structure adaptation to meet mothers' needs, and satisfaction with maternal health services.
Conclusion: Implementing a digital system in maternal health services depends heavily on financial resources and is widely available in the middle to high-income countries. Therefore, it is critical to readjust the service to reach the vulnerable group with no proper access to ensure equity and quality of maternal health services during COVID 19 pandemic.
