Abstract
Modern pregnancy care requires specific management, constant medical training, as well as 24 hour employment of midwives and gynaecologists. But not only medical aspects determine such pregnancy care - there are also many juridical problems. The author comments on pregnancy care contact, maternity guidelines and the guidelines of the scientific advisory council of the professional organisation of German doctors regarding prenatal diagnosis. Higher court judgements regarding medical duties when treating pregnant patients are cited. An important chapter deals with legal liability and damage amount in case of breach of duty. Finally, principles of medical information, duty of documentation and other forensic aspects of modern pregnancy care are explained.
