Abstract
There are many clinical guidelines worldwide for investigating intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy. However, in Cyprus, these guidelines are not implemented in clinical practice. The midwives themselves choose how to manage the incidents involving pregnant women. This study aims to gain insight into the lived experiences of midwives who investigate incidents of intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy.
