چکیده
THIS is the account of a series of 100 cases of stillbirth, compared 1 with 100 livebirths, from observations supplied by their family doctors. The primary aim of the study was to discover the psychological effects of stillbirth on the mother and her family, following clinical experience that disabling mental complications had followed stillbirths in some women who appeared previously to be normal; but, the actual results of the investigation force attention upon the disturbed doctor-patient relationship ensuing in these cases, characterized by a strong reluctance of doctors to know, notice or remember anything about the patient who has had a stillbirth.
