TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Social and professional support needs of families after perinatal loss JO - Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic, and Neonatal Nursing A1 - Hutti, Marianne H. SP - 630 EP - 638 VL - 34 IS - 5 N2 - Perinatal loss has been associated with depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, suicide, marital conflict, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Nurses may provide professional support through teaching, role modeling, encouragement, counseling, problem solving, and other interventions. Nurses also may encourage more effective social support by helping significant others to provide willing, well-intentioned action that will produce a positive response in the bereaved couple. Interventions to increase professional and social support after perinatal loss are described.
