To design a multivariate prediction model of pregnancy outcome in women with PCOS with the intention to define intervention strategies for the future.
The purpose of the project is a) to examine evidence-based instruments (DFSI, ASQ:(SE) and ITSEA) in the Netherlands in practices of midwives and within the system of health care and b) to gain more insight into the role of specific risk- and…
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-…
The objective is to study the effectiveness of the Triple P program compared to a control group, for parents and their NICU-graduates with emotional and/or behavioral problems. Effectivenes concerns children's problems, parents' parenting…
Find en give answers on the following questions: If ASR does occur can this be correlated to the seriousness of the maximum partal sphincter dilatation and /or the congenital perineum length?
In view of the outcome of the HYPITAT study, one can raise the question how women with preeclampsia or severe hypertension between 34 and 37 weeks of gestation should be managed. Induction of labour might prevent maternal complications. However,…
The project aims to gain more insight in the process of bonding between parents and prenature infants, to validate a screening instrument that can be easily adopted in maternity wards of (general) hospitals to detect parents and children at risk for…
This study will answer the question whether surgical intervention (metroplasty) in women with recurrent miscarriage and/or subfertility and a septate uterus will improve their reproductive outcome.
Giving an overview in women who are 20-30 weeks pregnant of the frequency and severity of physical signs and symptoms, which are according to literature related to low back pain in pregnancy.
The main question in the study isHow do moderately preterm infants and their parents differ from term, as well as extreme preterm infants in (a) development and self regulation skills of the infants, (b) interaction patterns and relationship between…
Objective #1: Implement clinical platform. We see the need to implement a clinical platform for two purposes. First, we want to design a biomarker profile of perinatal brain damage in human newborns (see above). Thus, we have established a…
1.To study the prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed/untreated coeliac disease in male-female couples visiting an infertility clinic.2. To study the relevance of routine antibody screening for coeliac disease in all patients with infertility…
Primary objective:• To investigate whether physical exercise prior to pregnancy in formerly preeclamptic women results in a comparable improvement of vascular and endothelial functioning as in women who had an uneventful pregnancy.Secondary…
1. To identify associations or an absence of associations between complaints and impaired daily functioning.2. To get an insight in events in pregnancy related to persistant complaints and impairments in daily functioning after pregnancy.
Primary Objective: To investigate whether spatially resolved NIRS can differentiate between a patent or closed ductus arteriosus.
The aim of this project is to investigate whether a first trimester model of 3D placental volume, 3D power Doppler measurement of the placental vascularization and/ or serum levels of PAPP-A, PlGF, PP-13, PAI, Ang-2, sFlt and SEng can predict early…
Objective of this study is to investigate cytokine production and expression of toll-like receptors on monocytes in blood samples from pregnant and non-pregnant women using sonicates from different types of oral pathogenic micro-organisms and…
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…
Epidural analgesia (EA) is an effective method to reduce labour pain. At present, it is unknown whether use of EA increases labour complications, and what the costs of EA are. In this proposal, we assess the impact of a proactive policy of offering…
The main objective of this study is to compare changes in maternal temperature and oxygen saturation in patients receiving remifentanil, administered intravenous patient-controlled, with those of epidural analgesia.
