Perinatal mortality rates are higher in lower social classes. In terms of health, there is no evidence of disappearing social class differentials. Antenatal care has followed the same 'routine' for most of this century. Antenatal care does not meet the needs of those already disadvantaged. Effectiveness and efficiency of antenatal care are poorly researched and evaluated.
