Handley and coauthors find limited overlap of different types of complications within the dyad, suggesting that "measures focused on either the birth parent or the infant do not adequately account for adverse events that occur in the other half of the dyad."
Handley and coauthors advocate for the use of measures that capture both parent and infant care and outcomes, and call for the creation of policy that supports the health of the parent-infant dyad.
Research and Justice For All is sponsored by CVS Health and cohosted by Sree Chaguturu, Chief Medical Officer (CVS Health), and Joneigh Khaldun, Chief Health Equity Officer (CVS Health).
