Filter by:The purpose of the study is to test the hypothesis that a short course of atorvastatin can improve vascular function in women with a history of preeclampsia, compared to placebo.
Preeclampsia and other high blood pressure disorders of pregnancy are a significant cause of both maternal and fetal complications of pregnancy. To date, there is no known "cure" for preeclampsia, but studies have shown that exercise may lower the risk of preeclampsia and high blood pressure disorders in pregnancy. Resistance training also lowers blood pressure, and may be easier to perform in a pregnant population, leading to higher compliance. The investigators propose to perform a novel prospective study of a resistance training regimen on blood pressure in pregnant patients at high risk for developing preeclampsia or high blood pressure.
The primary purpose of the trial is to evaluate coagulation activator markers in patients with pre eclampsia compared to control (normal pregnancy) and to correlate these markers with the severity of the pathology.
The purpose of this study is to finout whetere uterinae artery flow , PP13 and endogolin levels in the serum and kongo red in the urine can predict preeclamsia toxemia in twin pregnancies.
The utilization of external cardiohemodynamic patient assessment, applying non-invasive stick-on contact patches to the mother's neck on either side and chest wall on either side, enables the practitioner to have information about the patient's cardiac function and vascular status beyond simply blood pressure and pulse. This information, once collected, should open the practitioner's eyes to better assess the patient's disease status and her response to therapy. We will use this information to compare the effectiveness of the two standard medications used for treatment of maternal high blood pressure.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefit of several micro nutrients of antioxidants (using milk) in a cohort of women with low antioxidant status and the changes in cell-free mRNA.
Vitamin D deficiency is wide spread in South Asian population and is contributing to burden of disease in this region including Pakistan. The relative importance of vitamin D deficiency, mutation in its receptor and maternal and child health has not been established in Pakistan and population based studies are required to explore and avert the maternal and Neonatal complications and consequences of Vitamin D deficiency The trial will evaluate the effectiveness of Vitamin D supplementation to pregnant women and their Infants. It will be a double blind placebo controlled trial, which will be conducted in a rural district of Pakistan.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Fetal Medicine Foundation algorithm for individual risk calculation for preeclampsia (PE) and pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) is suitable to identify women in high risk of developing these diseases in a Norwegian population.
This study is a multi-site, retrospective chart review to determine the effect of Neevo® or NeevoDHA® (with higher folate and B12) versus standard prenatal vitamins on hemoglobin (Hgb) levels in pregnant women throughout the course of pregnancy. Neevo® is a prescription medical food indicated for the dietary management of women under a doctor's care who face high risk pregnancies, older overactive bladder (OB) patients and patients unable to fully metabolize folic acid. Data will be collected from existing patient charts of subjects administered Neevo® or NeevoDHA® daily compared to subjects administered a prenatal vitamin daily.
The investigators do not know which approach to treatment of non-severe high blood pressure in pregnancy is better for women and babies. In the CHIPS Trial, the investigators seek to determine whether 'less tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 100 mmHg), compared with 'tight' control (aiming for a diastolic blood pressure [dBP] of 85 mmHg) can decrease the risks of adverse baby outcomes without increasing the risk of problems for the mother.
