Filter by:The main theme of this study focuses on providing evidence of the impact of antenatal physical activity on maternal/foetal cardiovascular changes during pregnancy and maternal cardiovascular adaptations during the early postpartum period.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether a daily mindful meditation program for women admitted to the antepartum floor will decrease maternal state anxiety compared to routine care.
The purpose of this study is to determine if shortening the time to initial postpartum visit from six weeks to two weeks can improve clinic visit attendance and decrease usage of the emergency department.
The Hoosier Moms Cohort (HMC) study's goal is to better understand the pathophysiology underlying the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in pregnant women and its transition to Type 2 diabetes mellitus in mothers and their exposed children. The HMC study wants to determine what biomarkers (genetic, blood based and behavioral/interventional) can be identified in pregnant women affected with GDM and how those biomarkers can be used to impact preventative care.
Women report inappropriate health professional behaviour towards them during pregnancy or childbirth on social networks. However, to date, no data are available to estimate the number of women concerned. These data are necessary to characterize these behaviours to get out of this polemic and build a reflection on the improvement of the patient relationship and the emotional security of women.
A physically active lifestyle during pregnancy has potential to improve maternal and child health. However, less than four out of ten Danish pregnant women succeed to achieve 30 minutes of daily physical activity at moderate intensity as recommended by the Danish Health Authorities. This project investigates how to implement physical activity in pregnant women´s everyday life by testing the efficacy of two very different exercise programs on physical activity level during pregnancy.
Trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DHA-PPQ for Intermittent Preventive Treatment (IPTp) in HIV-infected pregnant women receiving cotrimoxazole prophylaxis (CTXp) and antiretroviral (ARV) drugs and using long lasting insecticide treated nets will be conducted in Mozambique and Gabon where malaria and HIV infection are moderate to highly prevalent. In addition, the possibility for a PK interaction between DHA-PPQ and ARV drugs will be assessed in a sub-sample of participants. Women will receive ARV therapy according to national guidelines and their infants will be followed until one year of age to evaluate the impact of DHA-PPQ on MTCT-HIV.
This is a pilot feasibility study investigating prenatal yoga for pregnancy related back pain.
PROJECT NARRATIVE: As demonstrated by a growing number of studies, experiencing high levels of stress during pregnancy, including elevated levels of the stress hormone cortisol, can lead to significant long-term health problems for mothers and their infants. The objective of the proposed research is to test whether an innovative stress management intervention, offered during pregnancy, is effective in reducing stress and cortisol levels among low-income pregnant women. The results of the proposed work have substantial public health implications in helping to prevent the onset of stress-related health complications among mothers and their infants.
The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a pragmatic effectiveness trial comparing digital mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) plus usual care to usual care (UC) only among euthymic pregnant women with recurrent depression treated with antidepressants. In the supplemental arms we will investigate the prevalence, severity, longitudinal course, correlates, and predictors of suicidal ideation and behavior among women during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
