Guidance on the disposal of pregnancy.pdf
The HTA has revised its published guidance aimed at professionals who work with women who have experienced a pregnancy loss or termination.
The guidance sets out the minimum standard expected from service providers responsible for the disposal of pregnancy remains following a pregnancy loss or termination and how women should be involved in decision-making about the sensitive handling of pregnancy remains.
This revision follows publication of an independent review in July 2023 on pregnancy loss, commissioned by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). The review sought to examine NHS gynaecology and maternity care practice for women who experience a pregnancy loss or termination. A consultation to update the HTA guidance on the disposal of pregnancy remains was led by DHSC’s Maternity and Neonatal Unit and involved a broad cross-section of stakeholders.
