Filter by:Pregnant women are susceptible to develop periodontitis, but these oral health changes related to pregnancy are often neglected. Periodontitis is accompanied by a low-grade systemic inflammation and can be harmful to the general health of the woman, contribute to pre-term birth and adversely influence the future health and metabolism of the offspring. Despite this, studies indicate that 40% of Danish women in childbearing age do not visit a dentist regularly. The PROBE controlled intervention study will investigate the beneficial effect of treatment of periodontal disease during pregnancy on fetal growth, preterm delivery and birth weight.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the potential effect of blood pressure variability changes on right ventricular strain in pregnant women with gestational hypertension or pre-eclampsia
The goal of this observational trial is to determine the resting cardiac output (CO) using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in a cohort of people with untreated preeclampsia, and a cohort of healthy normotensive pregnant people.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of massage ball application on arterial blood pressure, fatigue and anxiety in pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia.
The effect of mindfulness breath awareness meditation on health profile, vital signs, and fetal heart rate in pregnant women with preeclampsia
Preterm preeclampsia is a severe condition for both the mother and the fetus. Currently, the only treatment available to stop disease progression is termination/delivery of the fetus and placenta. Therefore, preterm preeclampsia carries the highest rates of neonatal morbidity and mortality due to iatrogenic preterm birth. There is evidence suggesting metformin, a drug commonly used to treat diabetes in and outside pregnancy, may be able to counter the pathophysiology of preeclampsia, raising the possibility that it could be used to treat the condition. This multi centre double blind randomised controlled trial aims to investigate if metformin can prolong gestation, lower neonatal length of stay and increase birthweight in a Swedish setting.
Objectives: We have developed a cardiovascular disease management application named Heart4U, with the capability of integrating with the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system within the hospital. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a treatment approach that entails self-management of risk factors through a mobile application among pregnant individuals diagnosed with hypertensive cardiovascular conditions. Methods: Patients assigned to the app group receive assistance from the research team to install the Heart4U application and familiarize themselves with its usage. Both the app group and the usual care group continue to receive active treatment as previously administered (guideline-based prenatal care). Follow-up observations occur at each obstetric examination prior to delivery and are conducted again at the first month postpartum. The primary endpoint of observation pertains to the difference in systolic blood pressure between the enrollment and study completion time points.
The goal of this study is to assess the effect of an electronic health record (EHR) clinical decision support tool, also known as a best practice alert (BPA), on healthcare provider recommendations for low dose aspirin use in a high-risk pregnant patient population. The investigators hypothesize that the implementation of the EHR BPA tool will increase the healthcare provider's recommendation for low dose aspirin compared to current standard care.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the ability of placental angiogenesis markers to predict the risk of PE in pregnancy in women with primary APS. To construct reference intervals of placental angiogenesis markers specific to women affected by primary APS in pregnancy by measuring the levels of sFlt-1and PlGF in serum maternal serum and their sFlt-1/PlGF ratio during the trimesters of gestation (I TM, II TM and III TM). For this aim the study will involve recruiting two groups of subjects, one will be cases and one will be controls.
High-risk pregnancies often require long-term hospitalization or outpatient maternal and/or fetal monitoring, placing a burden on patients, hospital resources and society. The demand for intensified pregnancy surveillance and interventions is increasing, due to the increased prevalence of risk factors like obesity and advanced maternal age, as well as altered guidelines resulting in increasing labor induction rates.The main aims of the HOME study (Home monitoring of pregnancies at risk) are to assess if home monitoring of selected high-risk pregnancies for maternal and fetal wellbeing is feasible, safe (in a clinical trial), cost-efficient, and simultaneously empowers the users.
