Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of a comprehensive intervention that combines breastfeeding support with a diabetes prevention-based program (DPP) on postpartum weight retention and lactation duration among women with pre-pregnancy overweight or obesity. This intervention, named eMOMS, is delivered by a certified health coach via a mobile health (mHealth) application.
The investigators aim to evaluate the safety and efficacy of administering calcium carbonate to laboring participants undergoing labor inductions. The investigators hypothesize that calcium carbonate is a low-risk preventative measure to decrease oxytocin induction time and dosage, decrease the rate of labor dystocia, decrease the rate of cesarean deliveries, and demonstrate no differences in maternal or neonatal safety outcomes.
This is a Phase I/II, multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study with four groups to characterize the pharmacokinetics and safety of Cabotegravir (CAB) and Rilpivirine (RPV) long-acting injectable (LA) during pregnancy and postpartum among people with HIV-1 viral suppression and their infants.
The goal of this study is to increase primary care professional's ability to identify individuals exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV) in primary health care settings. The main questions it aims to answer are 1. To what extent do the following three interventions contribute to identify potential victims of IPV: (1) the use of a standardized questionnaire that screens exposure to IPV, (2) staff using tailored virtual patients for clinical training on IPV and (3) a combination of interventions 1 and 2? 2. Which intervention do primary care professionals experience as most effective in increasing the ability to identify and respond to victims of IPV? Participants will be divided to apply one of the three interventions in their health care setting: 1) a standardized questionnaire to patients, 2) virtual patients tailored to health professionals, and 3) a combination of 1 and 2. Pre-and post-measurement of the health professionals identification of patients exposed to IPV will will be used to explore the effect of the interventions. Focus group interviews with the participating health professionals will be a qualitative complement. The participants will be asked about what intervention they experience as the most effective in increasing the ability to identify victims of IPV.
The primary objective of this study is to describe the frequency and characteristics of pregnancy outcomes and maternal complications among participants exposed to Ultomiris and to describe the frequency and characteristics of selected fetal/neonatal/infant outcomes in utero, at birth, and through 1 year of age after exposure in utero or via breastmilk.
Young women represent a population at risk of psychiatric disorders, the first signs of which often appear between the ages of 15 and 25. Psychiatric disorders are a major source of disability and healthcare costs. The perinatal period is an additional period of psychological vulnerability, during which women are at increased risk of developing or worsening psychiatric disorders. Unfortunately, psychiatric disorders seem to be largely under-diagnosed during this period, and therefore under-treated. The goal of this Prospective multicenter study is to determine the prevalence of the presence of at least one characterized psychiatric disorder, as defined by the use of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), in remission or not, during pregnancy, at the time of the second-trimester ultrasound (T2 ultrasound) based on a standardized clinical assessment. Participants will complete self-questionnaires and have a standardized psychiatric evaluation at T2 ultrasound and at 2 months postpartum.
This research seeks to demonstrate that a telemedicine model for the provision of legal abortion services in Ecuador is safe, feasible and acceptable to users requesting a medication abortion and who are less than 12 weeks pregnant.
The "first 1000 days of life", from conception to 2 years of life, are crucial for promoting the health of both mother and baby. During this period, a woman's diet and lifestyle play a significant role in determining the future health of the child. The perinatal period is an ideal time for regular contact with healthcare providers who can institute an intervention to encourage pregnant women to make nutritional changes to improve their health and that of their babies. Therefore, an educational program on an appropriate lifestyle during the "first 1000 days" can represent a crucial primary prevention strategy in reducing the risk of developing obesity and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) during childhood and later adulthood.
This is a randomized controlled trial examining whether the use of misoprostol or pitocin, in combination with a foley catheter, is more effective at inducing labor in patients with a gravid BMI that is considered obese.
Restless Leg Syndrome, a progressive and recurrent chronic sensorimotor disorder that creates an irresistible urge to move the legs and a feeling of discomfort, is seen in 15.4-26.0% of pregnant women in our country. Restless Leg Syndrome has negative effects on sleep, mood, cognitive health, daily activities and behavior in pregnant women; It can also cause preeclampsia, difficult labor, and cesarean delivery. Therefore, it is important for pregnant women with Restless Leg Syndrome to be treated appropriately. It is recommended that pregnant women use non-pharmacological treatments as they are not risky for fetal health. Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage methods are used non-pharmacologically to support venous-lymphatic drainage and manage pain. These methods are economical, reliable and easy to apply. However, no study has been found in which Kinesio taping or manual lymphatic drainage was applied to a patient group with Restless Leg Syndrome during or outside pregnancy. The aim of this project is to determine the effect of Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage on Restless Legs Syndrome severity, sleep quality and psychological well-being in pregnant women with Restless Legs Syndrome.
