Filter by:The first birth is the most important moment a woman experiences in her life as she embarks on her motherhood journey. Waiting for the birth of a new life can be very exciting for mothers. Positive birth is an approach that asks the woman to approach her birth story from a positive perspective and to have a stronger, more impressive and positive birth experience. Primipara pregnant women especially benefit from and need this positive birth approach. Motivational interviews are interviews conducted to support positive births and to help women develop a positive attitude towards their birth experiences. This planned study was planned as a randomized controlled trial with pre-test and post-test measurements, with the aim of determining the level of traumatic birth perception in primipara women who were given or not given training and examining the effects of positive birth motivational education by taking into account the need for education with numerical data.
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is involved in cardiovascular, metabolic and cognitive processes, so its study in the fetus can provide relevant functional diagnostic and prognostic information. In particular, the study of the fetal ANS allows us to understand the degree of nervous maturation reached by the fetus and any developmental disorders that could have an impact on the cardiovascular characteristics of the fetus. The goal of this open-label, non-randomized, prospective observational study is to study the fetal ANS in pregnant women between 23 and 40 weeks of gestation. The objetives are: - To Evaluate Fetal Autonomic Nervous System (FANTE) through the analysis of maternal electrocardiogram (ECG) and others clinical parameters usually used in pregnancy monitoring. - To identify any variations in the fetal ECG in the event of developmental or pathological maternal and/or fetal pregnancy. Participants will be recruited during ultrasound visits, information sessions, and hospitalizations after signing informed consent.
Although clinical studies highlight the value of MMS for pregnant and lactating women, implementation research studies are necessary to understand adherence and acceptability to the product and to uncover potential obstacles to implementation in specific contexts. For Nepal, it is crucial to establish whether adherence to MMS supplementation is non-inferior to the existing IFA supplementation for 180 tablets, which has a high (65%) adherence rate. It is also important to investigate how whether providing MMS in bottles (containing a substantial quantity, such as 90 count bottles twice during pregnancy) might impact ANC utilization, particularly in terms of ensuring that pregnant women attend at least eight ANC visits. Furthermore, assessment of MMS acceptability, including pill taste, smell, size, swallowability, side effects, benefits as well as aspects such as product labeling and packaging, among end users in Nepal, is needed to understand acceptability of MMS vs. IFA. Finally, implementation issues within the health system, including the need of trainings for healthcare workers' and, female community health volunteers (FCHVs)' training needs; and government stakeholders' interest and barriers;; community s Social and behavioral change communication needs, and issues around supply chain issues should be well-understood and documented to inform prior to scale-up to support a smooth transition of MMS. Thus, Helen Keller International, in collaboration with Nepal's Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) and the Eleanor Crook Foundation (ECF), will conduct a set of four mixed-methods studies to generate evidence and insights that inform the development of an MMS supplementation strategy. This trial in one province of Nepal is the first study that will be complemented by one additional quantitative study and two qualitative studies to generate evidence on the topics mentioned.
This study was conducted to determine the effects of hypnobirthing training and oxytocin massage on birth and postpartum period in primiparous pregnant women.
The main objective is to assess whether there are factors associated with women's refusal to participate in a randomized clinical trial involving first-trimester screening for pre-eclampsia. The secondary objective is to qualitatively evaluate the reasons for acceptance and refusal to participate.
Epidural and spinal anesthesia techniques are frequently used all over the world in elective cesarean section operations. To evaluate the effects of epidural and spinal anesthesia techniques applied in cesarean section surgery on neonatal cerebral oxygenation using Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS).
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a mindfulness-based web-based stress reduction program applied to primigravidas on perceived stress level in pregnancy, birth self-efficacy and prenatal attachment.
The aim of the study is to assess if probiotic supplementation can be effective in reducing periodontal clinical parameters in a 6-month study on pregnant patients.
This research will be conducted to determine the effect of stress ball intervention during NST on anxiety and fetal well-being in high-risk pregnant women. Women with high-risk pregnancies randomly assigned to intervention (n=43) and control (n=43) groups at a state and a faculty hospital in Turkey will be included in the study. Pregnant women in the intervention group will be told to squeeze and release the ball once after counting to three, to inhale each time they press the ball, to exhale when they relax their grip and to focus only on the ball. Pregnant women will be instructed to continue this practice throughout the NST procedure (approximately 20 minutes). Pregnant women in the control group will not receive any intervention other than routine hospital care during the NST procedure. Data on anxiety and fetal well-being outcomes will be collected before and after NST.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a program Woman's Hospital has made, called the Her Health Program, can help women be healthy and get healthcare in the first year after having a baby. The main question[s] the study aims to answer are: - Can the Her Health program increase access to healthcare in the first year postpartum? - Can the Her Health program increase knowledge about healthcare and change feelings toward the healthcare system? Participants will complete one research visit in which they will be enrolled and told which group they will be in- "Her Health Program" group or "Usual Care" group. If they are placed in the "Her Health Program" group, they will receive their usual care + the addition of an extra healthcare team member(called a community health navigator) to to work with patients and care team for a year postpartum. Researchers will compare those who receive the Her Health Program and those who do not receive the program to see if the Her Health Program can help women get healthcare in the first year after having a baby.
