Abstract :
[en] The actual results confirm the dominating influence of psychosocial factors on prematurity and low birth weight. The study performed in Liege indicates that these factors must be taken into account for better care of the future mother. The systematic use of a prenatal questionnaire on psychosocial factors draws attention towards the personal situation of the future mother. Detection of some organic or psychosocial risk factors must prompt prophylactic measures even in the absence of any sign of pathologies. Prevention of prematurity has, over the last 30 years, been the primary objective of prenatal follow-up. Its importance must be further emphasized.
