The objective of this study is to gain insights into the value of the proposition *Origo* for women and their loved ones, medical staff and care institution.
In this prospective study we aim to find out whether an early refeeding strategy in addition to standard care can improve maternal and neonatal outcome and reduce hospital stay.
To investigate whether bright light therapy is an effective treatment for depression during pregnancy compared with low-intensity placebo light therapy (proof-of-principle) and to investigate the late effects of bright light therapy versus placebo…
To determine whether administration of exogenous surfactant using a minimally-invasive technique improves outcome in preterm infants 25-28 weeks gestation treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).
Th**is study will compare sequential mifepristone and misoprostol (*M&M*) treatment versus misoprostol treatment alone, which is currently the standard medical treatment in the Netherlands.
The APOSTEL-VI study will assess whether a cervical pessary prolongs pregnancy in women who have been admitted for threatened preterm labor with a positive fibronectin test, but remained undelivered. Furthermore we will study whether a cervical…
To assess whether a higher prophylactic platelet transfusion threshold is superior to the lower thresholds in reducing the proportion of patients who experience a major bleed or death up to study day 28.
To evaluate the efficacy of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) in women with inherited thrombophilia and recurrent miscarriage on live birth.
In view of this lack of evidence and strong practice variation we propose a randomized clinical trial in overweight and obese subfertile women, in which we compare the costs and effects of a six months structured lifestyle program, aimed at weight…
To investigate the effect of maternal hyperoxygenation with 100% in the second stage of labor and in the presence of abnormal fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns on fetal condition, instrumental delivery rate and free radical production. In case a…
We would like to research wether there is a difference in time of mobilization between women getting iv PCA with Morphine (PCA)as opposed to women getting continuous epidural analgesia (CEA)with bupivacaine and sufentanil.We expect that the PCA will…
First objective: To assess improvement in live birth rate after levothyroxine supplementation. Secondary objective: 1) to test the hypothesis that levothyroxine lowers the risk for miscarriage and preterm birth 2) to test the hypothesis that…
We hypothesize that formerly pre-eclamptic women have persistently increased angiotensin II sensitivity, sodium sensitivity, insulin resistance and sympathetic nerve activity together initially leading to susceptibility for early renal disease and…
The overall objective of this trial is to generate data on the ovarian stimulation profile obtained when Pergoveris® is started either on stimulation day 1 or stimulation day 6 in ART patients between 36 and 40 years of age (both inclusive). A…

To evaluate whether nitrofurantoin treatment for women with asymptomatic bacteriuria is effective in reducing the risk of preterm delivery and/or pyelonephritis. In addition, assessing whether it is cost-effective to do so.
To assess the effects of a screening policy for Q fever in pregnant women from areas with large numbers of Q fever cases on the pregnancy outcome and cost-effectiveness from a societal and health care perspective.

Evaluation of the effects of intravenous lipid and extra amino acid supplementation from birth onwards to very low birth weight infants on amino acid turnover and protein accretion. As secondary objectives the safety, energy expenditure and short-…
