Aim: We explored professionals' views on sharing decision-making with parents before and after an extremely preterm birth and what healthcare professionals considered severe outcomes. Methods: A nationwide, multi-centre online survey was carried out among a wide range of perinatal healthcare professionals in the Netherlands from 4 November 2020 to 10 January 2021. The medical chairs of all nine Dutch Level III and IV perinatal centres helped to disseminate the survey link. Results: We received 769 survey responses. Most respondents (53%) preferred to place equal emphasis on two treatment options during shared prenatal decision-making: early intensive care or palliative comfort care. The majority (61%) wanted to include a conditional intensive care trial as a third treatment option, but 25% disagreed. Most (78%) felt that healthcare professionals were responsible for initiating postnatal conversations to justify continuing or withdrawing neonatal intensive care if complications were associated with poor outcomes. Finally, 43% were satisfied with the current definitions of severe long-term outcomes, 41% were unsure and there were numerous for a broader definition. Conclusion: Although Dutch professionals expressed diverse preferences on how to reach decisions about extremely premature infants, we observed a trend towards shared decision-making with parents. These results could inform future guidelines.
