The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether cervical cerclage reduces the risk of preterm birth in patients with a short transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) cervical length (CL) ≤25mm between 24 0/7-26 6/7 weeks.
High blood pressure during pregnancy poses significant risks to both the mother and baby. A combination of factors, including advancing maternal age, rising obesity rates, and metabolic health issues, have amplified the prevalence of this condition. While conventional medicines are available, safety during pregnancy remains a concern. Recent studies suggest …
Antenatal nonstress tests (NSTs) are performed to assess fetal health and are used as a cost-effective test that can be widely administered. However, an NST is operator-dependent due to the nature of Doppler ultrasound and is primarily performed in a clinic and hospital setting. The ability to conduct a clinically …
Obesity is a major risk factor for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). The underlying mechanisms are largely unclear, but maternal vascular endothelial dysfunction is likely involved. Endothelial dysfunction in HDP could be attributed to 1) alterations in the L-arginine/nitric oxide (NO) pathway, and 2) an increase in endothelin-1 (ET-1). Additionally, …
This prospective observational cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the relationships among fetal health locus of control (FHLC) perceptions, maternal anxiety levels, and fetal cardiotocography parameters in high-risk pregnant women. Pregnant women at 32 weeks of gestation or later who undergo routine non-stress testing (NST) at the Perinatology Outpatient Clinic will …
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the association between maternal thyroid function, maternal anxiety levels, and fetal cardiotocography parameters in high-risk pregnancies. Pregnant women at 32 weeks of gestation or later who are followed in the perinatology outpatient clinic for high-risk pregnancy will be included. Maternal thyroid function test …
The researchers are testing a medication named ravulizumab for the treatment of severe preeclampsia and Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, Low Platelets (HELLP) syndrome.
This is an observational, monocentric, retrospective cohort study. Its primary objective is to examine maternal and foetal outcomes in pregnancies that occurred before the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a group of female participants who were subsequently diagnosed with the condition.
The purpose of this pilot study is to collect data on pregnancies with mechanical heart valves to see if using a blood thinner called low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and low dose aspirin (LDA) is comparable to warfarin/vitamin K antagonist (VKA) to reduce the chance of clotting around the mechanical …
The ACHIEVE RCT will measure the effect of the intervention (mHealth app with CGM, provider dashboard, and care team coaching) compared to current standard care (prenatal visits, self-monitored blood glucose, and certified diabetes care and education specialist) on achieving glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c \<6.5% in the third trimester). We hypothesize …
