Filter by:Aim: In this prospective, randomized controlled study, it was aimed to examine the effects of early half-swaddle and kangaroo care practices in term babies on maternal sleep quality and postpartum depression. Design: The prospective, randomized controlled study
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with a single dose of RE104 for Injection reduces depressive symptoms in participants with moderate-to-severe postpartum depression (PPD) as compared to active-placebo.
This is a prospective, single-center, randomized control study to determine if video education at the time of postpartum discharge improves patient knowledge on the warning signs for the top three causes of severe maternal morbidity (infection, hemorrhage, and blood pressure disorders) in the first seven days following delivery for self-identified, Black, Latinx, other with two or more self-identified races, Medicaid, and/or uninsured postpartum individuals. Participants will be randomized to written discharge education + video education (intervention) vs standard discharge education (control). They will complete a baseline questionnaire and a post-discharge education questionnaire during their postpartum stay to assess for knowledge improvement. The investigators hypothesize that video education will improve patient's knowledge of severe maternal morbidity warning signs.
The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial was to examine the feasibility and acceptability of an ehealth antenatal coparenting intervention (eACoP) in primiparous Pakistani women. The secondary purpose of the study was to see the effectives of the intervention in prevention postpartum depression in women. Two hundred and twelve primiparous couples were randomized into an intervention or a control group from the Aga Khan University Hospital. Couples were randomized using consecutively numbered sealed envelopes. Couples in the intervention group received the eACoP intervention during pregnancy, consist of eight online videos in addition to the standard care provided at the center. Both the intervention group and control group received standard care.
The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, NORA520, as a possible treatment for severe postpartum depression (PPD). The trial aims to determine: - How well NORA520 is tolerated and what side effects it may cause - If NORA520 reduces depressive symptoms in subjects with severe PPD - The amount of NORA520 in the blood at various times after taking the study drug; this provides information that helps determine how often NORA520 should be taken - In a subset of subjects, the amount of NORA520 in breastmilk at various times after taking it to determine if and how much NORA520 can pass into breastmilk Participate in this study will be randomly assigned to one of 3 different groups. All subjects will take the study drug for 3 days.
The investigator's long-term goal is to mitigate pregnancy-related mortality (PRM) risk by systematically delivering integrated clinical and supportive care that is effective, equitable, and scalable. The investigator's central hypothesis is that the Multi-modal Maternal Infant Perinatal Outpatient Delivery System (MOMI PODS) will mitigate postpartum (PP) risk and reduce disparities in PP risk by improving biopsychosocial profiles and facilitating access to evidence-based clinical and supportive care. To test this hypothesis, the investigators will conduct a hybrid type 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) of MOMI PODS versus enhanced usual care (EUC, which we will term MOMI CARE) among a total sample of 384 mother-infant dyads (192/group) following pregnancy affected by a cardiometabolic and/or mental health condition. The investigators will enroll participants on PP day 1 and collect data at baseline and 6 months and 1 year PP. The investigators will collect implementation and service data across sites.
The goal of this educational clinical trial is to identify Black women most at risk for poor outcomes following delivery, the problems they experience, and to create a system to improve quality of postpartum care for high-risk women. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - How can the investigators help postpartum Black people who have poor outcomes by decreasing the number of ED visits/readmissions for postpartum people within the first 30 days postpartum? - How can the investigators increase the ability of participants to "obtain needed services" and ability for patients to see their provider when they need to, in the 30-day post discharge period as one of the main pathways of unnecessary ED visits? Participants will be put into the study group or control group. The study group will receive a pamphlet postpartum with helpful information as well as a patient navigator who the participants will be able to reach out to their first 30 days postpartum.
The objective of this pilot project is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and mental health impact of OULA for women with postpartum depression (PPD).
A randomized controlled study will be conducted to evaluate the impact of nursing intervention based on Meleis' Transition Theory on postpartum depression, maternal self-efficacy, and breastfeeding self-efficacy in women who have experienced preterm birth. The postpartum period represents a transitional and adaptive phase for mothers as they embrace a new role. However, the occurrence of preterm birth and the necessity of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) care for the newborn can initiate emotional distress in mothers, particularly when facing the admission of their infants to the intensive care setting. Consequently, the transition to new roles for mothers becomes challenging. A healthy transition to the maternal role is crucial for mothers who have experienced preterm birth, positively influencing maternal self-efficacy and breastfeeding practices while reducing the likelihood of postpartum depression. Therefore, the transition to motherhood in women with preterm births is of paramount importance for both the mother and the premature infant, warranting careful consideration and discussion. Women who have experienced preterm birth will constitute the population of the study. During the research period, women who have experienced preterm birth and whose infants are admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) will form the population of the study, and the sample will consist of women who consent to participate in the study during the study period. The sample size was estimated using power analysis (G Power 3.1.9.4.) program with a power of (1-β=0.90) and a significance level of (α=0.05), taking into account the mean and standard deviation of a similar study in the literature (Kadiroğlu and Güdücü Tüfekci 2022) (63.53±8.67 for the experimental group; 56.63±9.73 for the control group). The sample size of the study was calculated to be sufficient with a total of 64 women, with 32 women in each group. Considering potential losses during the study process, and in order not to compromise the statistical power of the research, an additional 20% of women were included in the study, resulting in a total of 76 women to be included in the study. Within the scope of the research, data will be obtained through the 'Personal Data Form' containing information about the socio-demographic characteristics of the participating women, as well as the 'Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale,' 'Perceived Maternal Self-Efficacy Scale,' and the 'Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale.
The goal of this project is to facilitate the design of individualized postpartum anxiety (PPA) screening strategies in British Columbia (BC), Canada. A cohort of postpartum people (n=550) will be invited to complete the following seven questionnaires at 4-8 weeks after delivery: 1. State-Trait Anxiety Inventory 2. Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale 3. Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support 4. PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) Emotional Distress-Anger, Short Form 5-a 5. Short Form Brief Pain Inventory 6. WHOQOL-BREF for assessing quality of life 7. PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Short Form 8-b and PROMIS Sleep-Related Impairment Short Form 8-a The investigators will evaluate the feasibility of screening for postpartum anxiety and comorbid conditions through a web-based platform in a diverse BC population. They will assess the usability of the platform and questionnaires through 12-15 follow-up interviews with study participants and responses to the System Usability Scale. Their analysis will also identify patient characteristics and comorbidities (e.g., anger, pain, sleep disturbance) associated with a positive screen for postpartum anxiety.
