MYFEMBREE®: A Retrospective Cohort Study Using an Administrative Healthcare Database to Assess Pregnancy...

Pregnancy RelatedPregnancy Complications2 more

This is a retrospective cohort study that will be conducted using secondary de-identified electronic healthcare data (EHD) that originally were collected for the purposes of health insurance billing and/or routine patient care from healthcare providers (HCPs). The study is designed to evaluate the association between relugolix combination therapy (relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1 mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg) exposure during pregnancy and subsequent fetal and infant outcomes.

Ensuring Patients' Informed Access to Noninvasive Prenatal Testing

Genetic DiseaseGenetic Syndrome3 more

Noninvasive prenatal genetic testing (NIPT) is an important new screening test option provided to pregnant women in the first trimester of pregnancy. The advantage of this screen is that is provides information about the risk of trisomy 13, trisomy 18, and trisomy 21 with greater accuracy than conventional screens. At the same time, NIPT can produce information about the risk of a cohort of other fetal genetic variants, including sex chromosome aneuploidies and microdeletion syndromes. While not yet clinically available for whole exome sequencing, the potential for this next clinical application already exists. The challenge is that, while this is an important new test, there are little data about how to best structure patient-centered decisions about its use, including decisions if to use this screen and how the information may directly inform subsequent prenatal care decisions. The purpose of this study is to gain formative data about current practice patterns with respect to how NIPT is discussed in the clinical visit and to use these data to help inform best practices for its continued use in the clinical setting.

Use of a Novel Computerized Decision Aid for Prenatal Aneuploidy Screening

AneuploidyPregnancy Complications

The investigators aim to assess whether use of a novel, tablet-based computerized decision aid for aneuploidy screening is similar to routine care with a brief genetic counseling visit in improving patient knowledge and decreasing decisional conflict.

Sleep Apnea Syndrome in Obese Women During Pregnancy

ApneaObstructive Sleep3 more

Excess weight or obesity is associated with an increased risk of health disorders: high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiovascular risks, dyslipidemia and sleep apneas. During pregnancy in obese women, the risk of preeclampsia increases by three and the risk of fetal death in utero by five. Snoring and Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may be associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including maternal cardio pulmonary status, fetal heart rate and fetal acidosis-basis status by recurrent upper-airway obstruction, hypoventilation, and intermittent nocturnal hypoxia. Reports in pregnancy have identified in association with OSA and preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction and stillbirth. The prevalence of OSA among women is estimated to be 2-5%, but it remains underdiagnosed during pregnancy. In sleep apnea syndrome, a few data have shown better pregnancy and fetal outcome with the use continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. the hypothesis is in obese pregnant women that there could be a significant association between sleep apnea syndrome and hypertensive disorders, preeclampsia and adverse fetal outcomes This is a prospective study of Women with a body mass index of 35 kg.m2 or greater. The aim of this study is to determinate the prevalence of sleep apnea syndrome in obese pregnant women and the benefit of CPAP on the maternal and fetal outcome.

Measuring sVAP-1 as a Predictor of Pregnancy Problems

Pregnancy Complications

Pre-eclampsia is a common pregnancy disorder defined as high blood pressure and protein in the urine after 20 weeks of pregnancy. It affects the function of the placenta and can cause severe complications, e.g, stroke, multiple organ damage and seizures for the mother, and fetal growth restriction or stillbirth for the baby. Pre-eclampsia can also cause long term health problems for mother and baby. Currently, there is no test that can predict whether someone will develop pre-eclampsia, so nothing is done to intervene before the problems begin. Results from their previous work suggest that the investigators may have found something that can be measured in a blood sample that can predict which women might develop pre-eclampsia. It is a protein known as Vascular Adhesion Protein-1 (VAP-1), and our evidence points at it being involved in the embryo attaching to the womb and also in helping the development of the placenta by helping to get the right cells to where they are needed. The investigators will test blood samples from 451 pregnant women who come to the Leicester Royal Infirmary for routine bloods and their first pregnancy dating scan. The investigators will then follow the outcomes of the pregnancy to see if VAP-1 in the blood of women who develop pre-eclampsia (or other pregnancy complications) is different from the ones who do not develop pregnancy complications. The ability to predict women at higher risk of pregnancy complications would ensure the application of timely interventions and appropriate management of the conditions that may help to prevent complications both during pregnancy and later life. The study is expected to last approximately 30 weeks and the participants will be asked to give one extra tube of blood whilst having their routine bloods taken and to also consent to follow up of medical records until the end of the pregnancy.
