Aims: To compare the characteristics of scientific publications performed in hospitals that used with those that didn't use an obstetric electronic health record (EHR).
Methods: This study included two reviews (A and B). Review A was an exploratory analysis of all 100 abstracts presented at the Scientific Meeting of the Portuguese Society of Obstetrics and Maternal-Fetal Medicine, in November 2017. Review B was a systematic review of studies in obstetrics, performed in Portugal and published between 2016-18 and indexed in PubMed. In both reviews, the included papers/abstracts were divided into two groups: from hospitals that used ObsCare (ObsCare group) and from hospitals without a specific obstetric EHR or that didn't use ObsCare (sObsCare group).
Results: In both reviews, the sample size was significantly higher in hospitals from the ObsCare group. In review B, the length of the study period was also significantly longer in ObsCare group; no significant difference was found in review A.
Conclusion: Publications from hospitals that used an obstetric specific EHR (ObsCare), included a higher number of patients and longer study periods.

The high maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality associated with PAS leads to concerns about the negative psychological impact, and even the risk of developing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The aim of this study was to assess the psychological impact of PAS diagnosis and intervention during pregnancy and postpartum and its potential association with PTSD.
