Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate stress and cardiovascular risk factors in women with preeclampsia in the medical history. The main questions it aims to answer are: - to improve our understanding of the underlying psychological and physical stress factors in relation to the circulatory risk profile in women with a history of preeclampsia - to examine the effects of mindfullness based stress reduction (MBSR) or aerobic exercise training on hair cortisol and symptoms of mental stress. Participants will undergo pre- and post-intervention pre-conceptional standard cardiovascular assessments, head tilt test and give a hair sample. As intervention they will sport or do mindfulness for 3 months.They will be compared with a control group.
Preeclampsia is a major devastating disorder affects 2:10% of pregnancies worldwide. preeclampsia may be associated with placental insufficiency which may cause fetal blood redistribution to essential organs like brain, heart, kidney.
Pre-eclampsia is a serious condition that typically affects pregnant women after the 20th week of pregnancy, characterized by high blood pressure and damage to organs such as the kidneys and liver. Currently, treatment options are limited, which has prompted researchers to explore alternative approaches. One such promising alternative is dietary nitrate found in vegetables like beetroot, as nitrate can be converted into nitric oxide in the body, which helps lower blood pressure. This study aims to determine the acute effects of nitrate-rich beetroot juice on blood pressure, several blood and salivary markers in pregnant women with pre-eclampsia. Furthermore, the study will assess fetal blood flow using Doppler ultrasound. The investigators want to understand the kinetics of nitrate and nitric oxide metabolites and assess the temporal dependency of the hypotensive response. Through this investigation, the investigators seek evidence of nitrate-enriched beetroot juice as an adjunct therapy in managing pre-eclampsia.
The only effective treatment of severe preeclampsia is delivery of the fetus but immediate antihypertensive treatment is given to stabilize the patient and prevent further complications. All antihypertensive medication can potentially cross the placenta. At this time, there are no randomized control trials to base a recommendation for the use of one antihypertensive agent over another. However, certain medications are effective in lowering blood pressure with an acceptable safety profile in pregnancy. The choice of therapy depends on the acuity and severity of hypertension
This is Observational study, aiming to investigate the potentiality of cffDNA and cfRNA by a non-invasive test, in combination with clinical characteristics, to establish models for early screening and predicting high-risk pregnancy of PE, SPB, and GDM in Vietnam.
Preeclampsia is the main cause of illness and death in pregnant women and fetuses. Currently, there is no effective treatment for preeclampsia in clinical practice, and the fundamental treatment is still termination of pregnancy and placental delivery. Therefore, early prediction of preeclampsia and targeted strengthening of high-risk pregnant women supervision, early intervention and diagnosis and treatment can greatly reduce the serious obstetric complications and perinatal maternal and fetal deaths caused by preeclampsia, which has significant social and clinical significance.
The purpose of The Preeclampsia Registry is to collect and store medical and other information from women who have been medically diagnosed with preeclampsia or a related hypertensive (high blood pressure) disorder of pregnancy such as eclampsia or HELLP syndrome, their family members, and women who have not had preeclampsia to serve as controls. Information from participants will be used for medical research to try to understand why preeclampsia occurs, how to predict it better, and to develop experimental clinical trials of new treatments. The Registry will consist of a web-based survey and mechanism for collecting and reviewing medical records. This data will be utilized for immediate investigator-driven cross-sectional research projects (after proposal review by the Registry's scientific advisory board and as directed by the PI). Participants may also choose to be contacted regarding possible participation in future studies, about providing a biospecimen, as well as investigator-driven clinical trials. The Registry is anticipated to exist long-term and to serve as a foundation of participants from which to draw for studies of preeclampsia, anticipated to evolve as our scientific understanding of preeclampsia evolves.
Preeclampsia complicates approximately 8% of all pregnancies. A critical factor of outpatient monitoring is patient education; specifically, education regarding nature of the disease, ongoing short- and long-term risks, and warning signs and symptoms for worsening of disease. This study aims to compare patient knowledge using a novel illustration based app compared to standard discharge instructions.
We study the effect of intravenous labetalol versus hydralazine in sever preeclampsia patients on cerebral blood flow and neurological outcome
The purpose of this study is to better understand diagnosis and treatment of preterm preeclampsia. Currently, there are limited laboratory tests that can be used to diagnosis preeclampsia. Additionally, there are few treatments for this condition. This clinical trial will explore treatment options, Metformin and Esomeprazole, as well as serum markers that could improve the diagnosis and treatment of preterm preeclampsia.
