Patient's question:
Today while reviewing my medical records, I noticed that my prenatal checkup book was missing. Why was the prenatal checkup book recalled?Doctor's answer:
The prenatal health manual is established within the first 13 weeks of pregnancy, involving thorough examinations. It records the entire pregnancy, except for post-delivery records, making it a complete medical history for the pregnant woman. Generally, hospitals where the manual is established will disassemble it after delivery to serve as medical records. If the manual is not disassembled at the delivery hospital, it will be collected during postnatal visits at the local community hospital for filing.
