The adoption of telemedicine has risen sharply and quickly across the United States, and it has been particularly evident during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This rapid growth of telemedicine as a replacement or supplement to usual, in-person care triggered many uncertainties and concerns for pregnant people as they had to navigate frequent prenatal and postpartum healthcare visits under risk of COVID-19 exposure.
In an effort to better understand the effectiveness and harms of telehealth strategies for the delivery of maternal health care, PCORI commissioned a rapid review of evidence on the topic, with a compressed timeline in order to inform our future research investments.
The evidence synthesized in this rapid review indicates that telehealth for maternal health care delivery is a promising alternative and/or supplement to usual, in-person care. Equally important are the evidence gaps identified in this review that point us to future research priorities.
