Filter by:Slow deep breathing actives the vagal nerve and leads to a natural reduction in physiological parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate and digestion. The effects of these techniques have not been assessed in pregnancy. The primary objective is to assess the effects of various yogic deep breathing techniques on blood pressure during pregnancy. The breathing exercises will include Alternate nostril breathing, Bhramari breathing, and Sheetali breathing. A secondary objective will be to assess the effects of these breathing exercises on other physiological parameters including heart rate, heart rate variability, body temperature, cardiac output, vascular resistance and respiratory rate.
Pregnant women with obesity will be invited to participate in structured home-based exercise programme, remotely monitored
This is a single-arm pilot clinical trial with two primary research goals: 1. To test the efficacy of a software's ability to profile eligible individuals who decline participation in a clinical trial ("non-consenters") so that research staff may improve recruitment strategies for subsequent waves of potential participants. 2. To test the feasibility of using the software's contingency management program in a population of pregnant persons in their third trimester of pregnancy.
Today, many methods are used in the evaluation of intrauterine fetal well-being. Non-stress test (NST) method is mostly used in the non-invasive evaluation of fetal well-being during pregnancy and labor. NST is a procedure in which fetal heart sounds are recorded and the relationship between fetal movements and fetal heart beat is monitored.3 Various methods are used to minimize the psychological effects that occur during pregnancy. Among these methods, it has been seen in the studies in the literature that music, which is a non-pharmacological method, has a positive effect on the pregnant woman and the fetus. It is easy and enjoyable to listen to music during the routine non-stress test process. However, there are not enough studies to prove the effect of music. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of the music concert applied during the nonstress test procedure on the health of the fetus, the anxiety level of the pregnant woman and blood pressure.
This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of serum melatonin as a biomarker for the determination of severe COVID-19 infection in pregnant women. Four study groups were formed, including pregnant women with a positive COVID-19 PCR test, severe symptoms, and inpatient treatment. Pregnant women who had complaints similar to COVID-19 infection or had no complaints, but had a PCR test due to the surveillance program and negative test results were included in the control group. Methods and Main Outcome measure: Laboratory values of the cases at the time of diagnosis parameters were collected. Melatonin levels decrease in pregnant women with COVID-19 symptoms, the severity of symptoms increases. In addition, patients with low melatonin levels have an increase in infection parameters and an increase in the hospital stay.
The study design is a prospective phase I pharmacokinetic study focused on dosing of 500 mg oral amoxicillin administration in pregnant women in the 2nd and 3rd trimester.
The aim of the study is to address the need for a wider array of evidence-based and non-pharmacological options to improve mental health in a psycho-socially highly vulnerable group of pregnant women. In more detail, the primary outcome is to estimate the effect of prenatal Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) as an add-on to usual care on mental well-being when compared to usual care alone. Second, to estimate the effect of prenatal MBSR on perceived stress and symptoms of depression and anxiety, and third to explore the effect on maternal bonding and childbirth, e.g. gestational age and experience of childbirth. Finally, to examine the mediating effect of mindfulness and self-compassion on the primary outcome.
Purpose: Test the effects of using Calm for its impact on stress, anxiety, and sleep in pregnant women using the following aims: Aim #1: Determine the feasibility of using Calm. Aim #2: Determine the preliminary efficacy of using Calm on stress, anxiety, and sleep. Exploratory Aim #3: Explore the preliminary efficacy of using Calm on self-reported birth outcomes
In this study intermittent dosage of iron supplementation three times a week will be compared to daily dosage in anaemic pregnant women due to iron deficiency.
This study will work in Tanzania to develop and pilot test a simulation and experiential learning intervention for labor and delivery providers, in order to address HIV stigma during childbirth. The primary endpoint will be patient-rated changes in respectful maternity care, comparing women who deliver in the pre-intervention time period and women who deliver in the post-intervention period.
