Filter by: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.
women with symptoms of preeclampsia from antenatal clinic or triage will be offered Lumella test along with traditional blood tests. If Lumella test is positive which will be compared with the traditional blood test results. Once 50 positive cases have been analysed the study results will be submitted to NICE.
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate cell-free RNA-based biomarkers for predicting a variety of adverse pregnancy outcomes in a pregnant person population. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Can cell-free RNA-based biomarkers predict which pregnant people are at greatest risk of developing adverse pregnancy outcomes (e.g., preterm birth, preeclampsia)? 2. What is the performance of such biomarkers when predicting an adverse pregnancy outcome (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, TPR)?
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.
The present study is a single-centre prospective study that will enrol pregnant women during their first trimester of pregnancy (11+0 - 13+6 weeks of gestation). During pregnancy, women will undergo standard clinical evaluation and management. During the two study visits (enrollment and 24+0 - 27+6 weeks of gestation) the investigators will perform arterial tonometry (Pulsepen) and in vivo darkfield microscopy (Glycocheck) to evaluate endothelial and vascular function. A urine sample and a blood sample for specific study analyses on metabolic profile, endothelial and angiogenic markers will be collected. Pregnancy outcomes will be collected at delivery and five years after delivery all the participants will be interview to collect long-term cardiovascular outcomes. Serum endothelial and angiogenic markers will be evaluated only in participants who will develop hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and in an equal number of controls matched for age and body mass index at the time of conception.
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.
Our study will be a cross sectional study to evaluate the knowledge level and attitude of pregnant women towards preeclampsia and factors affecting it ,the study will be done at Assiut University Hospitals - Women's Health Hospital. all pregnant women who will come to ANC visits will be included .the study tool is a well structured questionnaire for assessment of our outcomes.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial study is to test the potential benefits of eHealth-assisted follow-up after pregnancy complications that confer and increased risk for premature cardiovascular (CV) disease. The overarching aim is to improve short- and long-term CV health in women following pregnancy complications associated with increased risk of CV disease (hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and gestational diabetes). The investigators will develop and test a novel, personalized and user co-designed digital eHealth companion ("app") and test the app in a clinical randomized control trial. The group randomized to app use will get access to the app prior to delivery or within the first weeks postpartum, whereas the control group will not get access to the app, but receive ordinary follow-up. Both groups are invited to a comprehensive cardiovascular follow-up 14-18 months post delivery. The primary objective is to assess whether the rate of 1-year postpartum follow-up at the general practitioner's is increased with MumCare app access. Secondary objectives are to assess: 1. expectations of (and satisfaction with) postpartum eHealth-assisted technologies, 2. if health perception, sense of empowerment, quality of life, modifiable risk factors for CV disease (including hypertension, dyslipidemia, blood sugar control, smoking, weight), CV findings (including non-invasive hemodynamics) and biomarkers are affected by MumCare app use.
