History[edit | edit source]
The Canadian Perinatal Network was established in 2005 with the aim of improving the health outcomes of pregnant women and their infants. The network was formed in response to the increasing need for a coordinated approach to perinatal care in Canada.
Objectives[edit | edit source]
The primary objectives of the CPN are to improve the quality of perinatal care, to reduce the incidence of adverse perinatal outcomes, and to enhance the health and well-being of mothers and infants in Canada. This is achieved through a combination of research, education, and policy advocacy.
Structure and Function[edit | edit source]
The CPN is a collaborative network of healthcare professionals, researchers, and policy makers. The network operates through a series of committees and working groups, each focused on a specific aspect of perinatal care. These groups work together to develop and implement strategies for improving perinatal health in Canada.
Research and Education[edit | edit source]
One of the key functions of the CPN is to conduct research into perinatal health issues. This research is used to inform the development of policies and practices that can improve the health outcomes of mothers and infants. The network also provides education and training for healthcare professionals in the field of perinatal care.
Impact[edit | edit source]
Since its establishment, the CPN has made significant contributions to the field of perinatal care in Canada. The network's research and advocacy efforts have led to improvements in the quality of care provided to pregnant women and their infants, and have helped to reduce the incidence of adverse perinatal outcomes.
