Filter by:Introduction: Prenatal tests can increase the stress levels of pregnant women. One of the tests performed to evaluate fetal health during pregnancy is the Nonstress Test (NST). Objective: To evaluate the effect of NST device noise level on stress parameters in primiparous pregnant women. Method: A randomized controlled, prospective study was conducted with 44 pregnant women in a State Hospital in Istanbul/Turkey between 01.02.2021 and 01.10.2021. Personal Information Form, Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory, Hillrom Welch Allyn Connex Spot Monitor, Gluco Dr Glucometer, Extech SL 400 Personal Noise Dosimeter, Sennheiser HD 450BT ANC Over-Ear Bluetooth Headset, Eppendorf Tube, Philips Avalon FM20 NST were used to collect data. A p value of <.05 was considered significant in the statistical evaluation.
For every case of maternal death, many more women experience life-threatening complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Yet, severe maternal morbidity (SMM) cases are often overlooked post-delivery. Women have reported that roughly 15% of SMM cases first occurred in the six weeks following delivery. The underlying factors associated with these morbidities are likely different than those occurring antenatally and at the time of delivery. Further research is required to elucidate the exact burden of SMM in the postpartum period in British Columbia (BC).
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-enabled ECG (AI-ECG) for cardiomyopathy detection in an obstetric population in Nigeria.
A pragmatic clinical trial are developed with the aim to assess the effectiveness and feasibility of using an app as complement of the usual care that receive pregnancy women in a sanitary area in the Principado de Asturias (Spain). Participants are pregnancy women attended in the sanitary area number 3 of the Pincipado de Asturias. As inclusion criteria we will consider: i) aged over 18; ii) pregnant with only 1 fetus; iii) low risk pregnancy; iv) smartphone Access; v) signed the informed consent. As exclusion criteria: i) non-fluent Spanish speaker; ii) do not fill the questionnaires. A randon sample of 153 women will be recruited consequtively, at the first triemester, from the midwife consulting room. Those women to agreed to participate, and sign the infomred consent, will be anonymizated using a alphanumerical code and asigned (according to a previous randomization distribution by code) to a control or an intervention group. All women are going to receive the baseline and post intervention questionnaires by email. All women are going to receive the usual care. Adittionally, those in the intervention group, will be prompted to use iNATAL app. The following questionnaires and measures will be used: uMARS Questionnaire to assess and percentage of app usage tot assess the feasibility; to assess the effectiveness: Motiva.Diaf to assess dietary and physical activity recommendations; ad hoc questionnaire to assess knwoldedge pregnancy related; mother complications during of after the pregnancy period and newborn complications. The intervention takes all pregnancy period.
This is a prospective clinical study that aims to investigate asymptomatic carriage of beta haemolytic streptococci (especially group A streptococci, GAS and group B streptococci, GBS) during pregnancy. Association of asymptomatic carriage to possible complications of the mother or the newborn as well as the transmission between spouses will be evaluated. Maternal microbiota during labour will also be studied.
A two-arm non-blinded randomised feasibility protocol trial designed to assess the feasibility, safety, and acceptability of an intermittent low energy diet (ILED) vs best National Health Service (NHS) care in women with gestational diabetes and obesity in Greater Manchester.
This study aims to explore outcomes of waterbirth in comparison to conventional land birth for low-risk healthy women and neonates in a hospital setting in Milwaukee, WI. This study hypothesizes that women who labor and birth in water will use less pain medication, have a shorter labor, will be more likely to initiate breastfeeding prior to discharge, will not experience more negative outcomes, and will experience greater satisfaction than women who labor and birth on land.
The purpose of the study is to learn how different dietary interventions affect microbiota diversity in pregnant women and the transmission of microbiota to their infants during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
Nutritional status during pregnancy plays an important role in maternal health and birth outcomes. While few factors impacting nutritional status during pregnancy have been identified, studies of undernutrition in children have revealed a key role for the gut microbiome. Remarkably, studies examining the dynamics of the maternal gut microbiome before and during pregnancy and its impact on birth outcomes are limited. This study is being conducted to investigate how a mother's nutritional status and her gut microbiome during pregnancy contribute to the birth outcomes and health of her baby. The gut microbiome is the totality of microorganisms (e.g. bacteria, viruses, fungi) living in the gastrointestinal tract. This study will focus on married pregnant women 24 years and younger living in Matiari District in Pakistan. The focus is on younger women due to their vulnerability to undernutrition. Pregnant participants, and upon delivery, their newborns will be followed throughout pregnancy and for a year afterwards. Throughout this period, the investigators will collect stool samples, rectal swabs, blood samples, health assessments, nutritional and dietary assessments and birth/ labour details. The goal is to define the relationship between a mother's nutritional status and her microbiome dynamics during pregnancy and how they contribute to the birth outcomes and growth of her newborn. Investigators hypothesizes that alterations of the microbiota in the maternal gut (dysbiosis) is exacerbated by nutritional status or pathogen exposure during pregnancy. This impacts weight gain because of impaired nutrient absorption, and can lead to corresponding negative birth outcomes.
The aim of this study is to identify the knowledge, behavior and social representation on dental health among pregnant women. This study could improve, in the future, prevention, treatments and care for them.
