Abstract

Antenatal care was established in Norway during the 1930s. Unlike the other Nordic countries, care is provided by general practitioners, not be midwives. Guidelines were first issued in 1984 after a debate about the quality of the care. This article reports providers' compliance to important parts of the guidelines.
