Understanding the normal development of the early pregnancy and observing this process ultrasonographically has allowed us to monitor effectively first trimester pregnancy, and recognize early signs of abnormal outcome. The CRL (Crown-Rump-Length)…
The aim of this study is to describe and learn more about parenting attitudes, laxness and overreactivity, the ability to set limits and parenting stress in fathers and mothers of children born preterm at the age of 5 to 7. Hypotheses will be tested…
The aim of this study is to investigate whether it is possible to improve genetic diagnostic testing in case of fetal abnormalities and a normal karyotype. We are interested in the relevance of the additional genetic testing.We wish to study the…
To assess whether testing for fibronectin is a cost-effective strategy that prevents unnecessary treatment in women with threatened preterm labour.
The final aim of the study is the implementation of a test for the detection of fetal Down syndrome via noninvasive procedures, with the same characteristics as the tests that are currently being used (sensitivity and specificity). This test can…
To compare the burden for pregnant women and diagnostic capabilities of the oral glucose tolerance test (75g and 50g) and blood glucose samples during the day.
We would like to perform a study in which first the level of agreement and the correlation between echocardiography and the new rebreathing technique in estimating cardiac output will be determined.
Our preliminary data shows that the prescription rate of antibiotics for suspected EOS versus blood culture proven EOS was high. We aim to develop a new diagnostic model to reduce unnecessary antibiotic treatment which can be tested in the near…
To determine whether fFN kan detect preterm delivery in monochorionic twins treated for TTTS.
Primary Objective: To investigate whether spatially resolved NIRS can differentiate between a patent or closed ductus arteriosus.
The first aim of this study is to obtain insight in the physical fitness of ex-preterms. The second aim is to study the influence of the daily activity pattern of the children on physical fitness. The third aim is to study the attitude of parents…
Validation of Microlife 3BTO-A and OMRON for blood pressure measurement in women with moderate to sever preeclampsia.
We will investigate the feasibility of using STIC technology to evaluate the fetal cardiac anatomy in different stages of gestation. Further we will investigate the fetal cardiac function using STIC technology.
To assess if the studied TCD variables of cerebral autoregulation and hemodynamics are abnormal during preeclampsia. And if so, to determine if these changes are large enough to have potential value to determine a threatening cerebral dysfunction in…
The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that severe pre-eclampsia/HELLP syndrome in comparison to patients without severe preeclampsia/HELLP are accompanied by changes in hepatic circulation and themselves cause changes in elastographic…
Determination of psychosocial effects after severe, early onset preeclampsia for improvement of care of these patients in the future.
The RIVM, UMCU and VUmc collectively will perform a prospective study in which the screening value of ADAM12 and PP13 for chromosomal abnormalities and adverse pregnancy outcome will be investigated.
Primary aims:1. To perform a population-based screen to estimate the exact frequency ot transient leukemia in Dutch newborns with Down syndrome2. To investigate the realtionship between transient leukemia and the occurrence of DS ML and ALL at later…
To identify the factors who are responsible for the chronification of pregnancy related pelvic girdle pain.
