Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" id="ajo12094-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>This is a qualitative descriptive study evaluating the maternal response after the woman has learned her pregnancy has a poor prognosis via telemedicine rather than in a traditional, face‐to‐face, consultation method. In general, telemedicine was positively viewed by the participants; however, the experience may be markedly improved by implementing several simple changes in the overall consultative process.</p> </abstract>
