Multiple factors contribute to these disparities, including variations in quality health care, structural racism, and implicit bias. Interactions between Black patients and perinatal clinicians could further affect perinatal care use and subsequent perinatal outcomes. This integrative review aims to synthesize quantitative and qualitative literature published in peer-reviewed journals in English within the past 10 years that address patient-clinician interactions during the perinatal period for Black birthing people in the United States. A systematic search of CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, MEDLINE, and Embase recovered 24 articles that met the eligibility criteria for inclusion in this review. The following themes emerged from synthesizing Black patients' interactions with perinatal clinicians: Care Quality, Communication, Power Dynamic, and Established Relationships. Mutual respect, effective communication, and shared decision-making may be key modifiable factors to address through clinician education to improve perinatal care for many Black persons. 收起
