Most prenatal care research, rather than quality concepts, focuses on the adequacy of prenatal care and describes the emotional-psychological experiences of women with HRP.

In the present study, 10 midwives, 2 executive directors, and 7 specialists were purposefully selected with maximum diversity. In-depth semi-structured individual interviews were used to collect the data. Data were analyzed concurrently using Elo and Kinga's content analysis. The MAXQDA software version 10 was used for data analysis Results: During data analysis, the 6 main categories "infrastructure for care provision", "optimal clinical care", "organizing referrals", "preconception care", "risk assessment", and "family-centered care" and 14 subcategories were identified Conclusion: Our findings showed that professional groups focused on the technical aspects of caring. The findings from this study highlight several conditions that can affect the quality of prenatal care for women with HRP.
