Active clinical trials for "Puerperal Disorders"

The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of semaglutide 1mg (Ozempic®) to aid recently postpartum women with dysglycemia and a history of GDM to regress to normoglycemia; thereby filling a gap in efficacious pharmacologic intervention options for clinicians to support postpartum diabetes recovery and reduce future risk of T2DM in young women.

The objective of this study is to design and validate an online intervention aimed at promoting well-being in women with postpartum depression. For this, the design of a multicomponent protocol consisting of empirically validated positive interventions and comparing these with a group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is proposed, following the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommendations for the treatment of depression. Participants will be screened for inclusion in the program if they meet clinical criteria. After that, they will be randomly assigned to a CBT group or a positive psychology intervention (PPI) group.

The aim of this study will be to determine the effect of the sexual health education and counseling program, which is given to women in the postpartum period based on the Ex-PLISSIT model, on women's sexual life, including sexual function, sexual distress and sexual life quality.

200 patients with post partum anemia will be randomised to receive either intravenous iron (intervention group) or peroral iron (control group). The hypothesis is that intravenous iron supplementation is superior to standard peroral iron.

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether self-administered postpartum diabetes screening tests in patients with gestational diabetes improves screening completion rates. The primary question it aims to answer is: Does a self-administered 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test with virtual follow-up visit increase the rate of postpartum diabetes screening within 12 weeks of delivery? Does a self-administered 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test with virtual follow-up visit increase attendance at the routine 6-week postpartum visit? Is a self-administered 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test with virtual follow-up visit associated with high patient satisfaction in their healthcare experience?

The postpartum period for the family is the period of adjustment in which a new order is established due to adding a new member to the family. For the mother, this period is a transitional period in which she has to adapt to her baby, postpartum disorders, the new order in the family, and changes in body image. Inactivity is common in today's world; increases the risk of various problems in new mothers. These problems negatively affect women's depression, functional level, sleep quality, and quality of life in the postpartum period. The Pilates method, developed by Joseph Pilates under the name of "Contrology," is the most well-known exercise method in the world for babies and mothers among today's exercise programs since it is an exercise method in which all systems, spirit, and body are integrated and coordinated, considering the whole physiological process. This study aims to understand how depression, loss of functionality, sleep quality, functional levels, and quality of life levels of women who do pilates exercises with a physiotherapist are affected in the postpartum period.

The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes on the treatment of pain and disability of postpartum low back pain. The current study will compare the use of assisted sit-up exercise and swiss ball pikes. The current study is novel in a way that there is limited literature about treating postpartum low back pain with physical strengthening exercises. These two methods will be employed to see if they improve ranges along with accompanying pain and disability.

In a 3 years longitudinal, observational, multicentre study, about 500 women will be recruited and followed-up from early pregnancy (10-15 gestational week) until 12 months after delivery. The primary aim of the present study is to systematically explore and characterize risk factors for perinatal depression (PND) by prospective sleep assessment (using wrist actigraphy, polysomnography and various sleep questionnaires) and blood based analysis of potential markers during the perinatal period (Life-ON study). Secondary aims are to explore the relationship between specific genetic polymorphisms and PND (substudy Life-ON1), to investigate the effectiveness of BLT in treating PND (substudy Life-ON2) and to test whether a short term trial of BLT during pregnancy can prevent PND (substudy Life-ON3). The characterization of specific predictive and risk factors for PND may substantially contribute to improve preventive medical and social strategies for the affected women. The study results are expected to promote a better understanding of the relationship between sleep disorders and the development of PND and to confirm, in a large sample of women, the safety and efficacy of BLT both in prevention and treatment of PND.

The aim of the study is to compare the effect of intravenous versus oral iron in women with severe postpartum anemia.

Introduction A common problem in women after childbirth is bleeding (5-8 percent). This is one of the leading causes of maternal death in Thailand. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage is approximately 1-2 percent of the births. A second problem is infection after birth which is a leading cause of illness and death of the mother. Incidence of infection after childbirth is 1-2 percent of women in developed countries and 5-10 percent of postpartum women overall. Staphylococcus aureus bacterium is found in the reproductive system of 5-9 percent of women. Perineal wound infections cause perineal pain. Thirdly is the problem of insufficient milk in foreign countries, mothers breastfeeding for less than 12 months total 94.7 percent. The fourth problem is difficult urination after vaginal delivery or 6 hours after removing the catheter in surgical cases. It is a common and important problem from 1.7 to 17.9 percent. The above problem causes infection and inflammation pain. The first 24 hours after birth to 6 weeks physical and physiological changes of maternal organs and systems occurs such as the decline in hormone levels. This includes human placental lactogen (HPL), human chorionic somatomammotropin (HCS), human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), estrogen, progesterone, prolactin, follicular stimulating hormones, luteinizing hormones. There is also blood loss. The clinical difficulties found in the postpartum period include after pain, perineal pain, breast engorgement, puerperal diuresis, weight loss, fever, pain and discomfort after birth. And the pain decreases or is lost in 3 days after birth. The original gate-control theory proposed that there is a physiological within the substantia gelatinosa of the spinal cord's dorsal horn grey matter. It is suggested that sensory signals can only pass through the cells in the substantia gelatinosa when the gate is open. When the gate is closed, sensory information is blocked, and this forms the basis of a kind of physiological pain relief. In relation to the 4 basic life elements of earth, water, wind and fire, the maternal body is lacking wind. This causes the fire to also decrease and the element of pain results. It becomes important to restore balance by stimulating blood circulation and herbal treatment is desirable to help the fire of the blood to speed the element of wind through the body. Thai Traditional Medicine is used to treat the pain of mothers after childbirth. Because of in balance of mind fire in the body. By this reason, the balance of fire and wind increase to spread the circulatory system. Medicinal plants can increase the element of fire and the wind. Also, in Thai Traditional Medicine concept, pain reduction for postpartum mothers includes regular massage, herbal steam, herbal breast compress, Tub Mhor Kluer, eating heat-producing food. In the Thai Traditional Medicine manuscript, Kam-pee Mahachotharat there are 85 remedies for blood treatment therapy and especially, 44 contain ginger. Representing 51.76 percent of then. Ginger has been included in the National Essential Medicines Catalogue 2554. Medication to relieve heartburn, bloating and distension, is documented and prevention and relief of nausea and vomiting due to motion sickness, seasickness. Or after surgery, are all included.
