Primary Objective: To establish a prediction model for the probability of vaginal delivery and successful vacuum extraction at the second stage of labor, using the angle of progression by transperineal ultrasound. Secondary Objective(s): To evaluate…
Part I Preclinical study using the VIRTUAL preclinical prototype Primary objective:- To validate the reliability and applicability of regular use of the VIRTUAL (pre)clinical prototype in a bed-side setting (desktop) preconceptional and across…
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 difference in reporting pelvic floor symptoms when women fill in a standard validated disease-specific questionnaire, without further intervention, compared with daily care, in wich there is no special attention to these complaints…
To evaluate the effectivity of the electrohysterogram (EHG) by means of a tocopatch electrode compared to tocodynamometry by means of an external tocodynamometer or intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) to monitor trial of labour (TOL) in patients…
To evaluate whether a higher SAF level is related to a higher incidence of macrosomiaTo evaluate if a higher SAF level is related to a higher incidence of other maternal, fetal or neonatal complications To evaluate is SAF level is related to a…
The objective of this research, which is a small part of the BioMod UE_PTL project, is to determine the relation between the electrical activity and the mechanical contraction of the uterus. This can greatly contribute to comprehension of the EHG.
To evaluate whether a screening program with cervical length measurement to find women at risk for a preterm delivery, is cost-effective. Women with a short cervical length are asked to take part in a follow-up study (the Tripple P treat study) that…
We will investigate the feasibility of using STIC technology to evaluate the normal fetal cardiac anatomy and morphology in different stages of gestation. Further we aim at making normograms of different intracardiac parameters in relation to…
-Comparing two-dimensional and three-dimensional ultrasound length measurement-Evaluate improvement in three dimensional ultrasound imaging. Assessing possibility of cervical volume measuring.-Assessing intra- and inter-observer variation of…
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.
To assess whether testing for fibronectin is a cost-effective strategy that prevents unnecessary treatment in women with threatened preterm labour.
Primary objectives:• To demonstrate that low ratios of sFlt-1/PlGF predict absence of PE / eclampsia / HELLP (according to diagnostic criteria) within one week after start visit (= Visit 1).• To demonstrate that high ratios of sFlt-1/PlGF predict PE…
To assess in women with a request for pain relief during labour the cost-effectiveness of remifentanil patient controlled analgesia (RPCA) as first choice compared to EA.
The main outcome measure is the sensitivity of real-time electrohysterography for detecting contractions, using an intrauterine pressure catheter as reference. Furthermore, the accuracy of EHG will be compared to external tocodynamometry for…
Primary ObjectiveDifference in incidence of an avulsion injury and morphological changes of the levator ani muscle after a first normal vaginal delivery between participants with and without a mediolateral episiotomy.Secondary ObjectiveChanges in…
The primary aim of this study is to determine to what extent FBS is effective in preventing unnecessary operative delivery for CTG-suspected fetal distress. The secondary aims are to determine if FBS does not enhance poor perinatal outcome. Tertiary…
The primary objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of white matter lesions and subjective/objective neurocognitive functioning in women several years after pregnancy compared to nulliparous women The secondary objective is to…
Primary objective: To investigate whether sleep disturbances during pregnancy and/or in the perinatal period will predict postpartum psychopathology in women with an established diagnosis of bipolar disorder and/or a history of postpartum psychosis.…
In this study we will assess the optimal analytical conditions for routine laboratory GDM screening in the Netherlands, possible discrepancies in clinical outcome due to (pre)analytical variation and the applicability of POCT testing in GDM…
