Popis: Objective: We investigated the support of self-management by health care providers (HCP) in prenatal Shared Medical Appointments (SMA). Methods: on an topic list, semi-structured interviews were conducted. HCP who provided prenatal care in SMA in the last five years were recruited. Thematic analysis was used. Results: We conducted 15 interviews. Four research themes were defined: didactic techniques, peer learning, motivation and the health care providers. Self-management support in SMA is based on peer-learning and is influenced by group dynamics. HCP play a role in the creation of an effective learning climate by using practical and communication techniques. HCP motivate participants for self-management through peer learning and person centered care. HCP need certain personality traits and leadership skills. Conclusion: Self-management support in SMA is based on peer-learning and is influenced by group dynamics. HCP create an effective learning climate using practical and communication techniques and motivate participants for self-management through peer learning and person-centered care. Innovation: This is the first study that gives insight in self-management support in SMA. HCP and medical schools should be aware of the fact that HCP in SMA need insight in didactic techniques, peer learning, group dynamics and leadership skills.
