Despite the severity and unpredictability of shoulder dystocia, little research addresses provider emotional trauma after such events. Using in-depth interviews, we examined how CNMs process, integrate, and recover from these experiences. Findings highlight significant emotional distress, professional bereavement, and the impact of cultural norms that discourage acknowledgment of clinician suffering. Results underscore the need for evidence-based strategies to support psychological resilience and collegial care following adverse obstetric outcomes. 000000919 540__ $$fCC BY 000000919 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000919 650__ $$aClinical Nursing Research$$028382 000000919 650__ $$aNurse Midwives$$023074 000000919 650__ $$aNursing$$023082 000000919 650__ $$aDystocia$$018147 000000919 650__ $$aEvidence-Based Nursing$$038239 000000919 650__ $$aInfant Mortality$$020777 000000919 650__ $$aMortality$$022435 000000919 650__ $$aAdvanced Practice Nursing$$038882 000000919 650__ $$aShoulder Dystocia$$013173 000000919 650__ $$aMorbidity$$022428 000000919 650__ $$aInfant, Newborn$$020782 000000919 650__ $$aResearch$$025336 000000919 650__ $$aBereavement$$015485 000000919 650__ $$aPsychological Distress$$012992 000000919 650__ $$aResilience, Psychological$$038331 000000919 650__ $$aPregnancy$$024523 000000919 650__ $$aStress Disorders, Traumatic$$035060 000000919 650__ $$aNurse Midwives$$023074 000000919 6531_ $$aclinical inquiry report 000000919 6531_ $$apsychic trauma 000000919 691__ $$aSchool of Nursing$$041370 000000919 7001_ $$aRobins, Katherine$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000919 8564_ $$966ade13b-4ea1-4675-a605-4ca97639c7f4$$s975539$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/919/files/922_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2b644f7291c334b3cba8ac288737ed57d$$31 000000919 905__ $$a/rest/prod/7w/62/f8/27/7w62f8277 000000919 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:919$$pstudent-work 000000919 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
