Abstract
the review revealed that there was no standardised scale used for diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder across the studies and no single efficacious treatment. A universal instrument for diagnosis of postnatal post-traumatic stress disorder is required. The intrapartum relationship with midwives appears to be an important contributor to prevention of PTSD and this requires further investigation.
