Intensified post-childbirth follow-up creates opportunities to detect childbirth-related complications and to offer support. This scoping review describes current approaches to following women and newborns up to 1 year after they leave childbirth facilities. n Follow-up was conducted via in-person visits, telephone calls, self-administered questionnaires, or a combination-with high response rates in most studies.nThe included studies illustrated the range of methods available and demonstrated that postdischarge follow-up of women and newborns was feasible, well received, and important for identifying cases of postpartum illness or complication that would otherwise be missed.
