Patient Navigation Program for New Mothers Postpartum Care
Chicago, Illinois
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether implementation of a postpartum patient navigation program improves health outcomes among low-income women. Patient navigation is a barrier focused, long-term patient-centered intervention that offers support for a defined set of health services. The intervention under investigation is a comprehensive postpartum patient navigator program. Women who are randomized to receive patient navigation will be compared to women who are randomized to receive usual care. Navigators will support women through one year postpartum. The NNM2 program will be grounded in understanding and addressing social determinants of health in order to promote self-efficacy, enhance access, and sustain long-term engagement. Participants will undergo surveys, interviews, and medical record review at 4-12 weeks and 11-13 months postpartum. The investigators will additionally conduct focus groups and surveys with clinical providers.

Lifestyle Intervention vs Metformin for Gestational Diabetes
Washington, District of Columbia
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-month lifestyle intervention compared to Metformin in postpartum women who have delivered a singleton, live born infant within the last 12 weeks to 1 year and had a pregnancy complicated by gestational diabetes. The main question this study aims to answer is:
Is a Lifestyle Intervention or Metformin more effective for weight loss in postpartum women with recent gestational diabetes?
Researchers will compare a 6-month Lifestyle Intervention and Metformin to see if either intervention is more effective in achieving weight loss and improving health outcomes.
Participants will:
* Attend an in-person baseline visit to receive a Bluetooth-enabled scale and Fitbit, have blood drawn for testing, and have their height, weight, and blood pressure measured. Participants will also be asked to bring in their infant, and the study team will measure the infant's weight and length.
* Track diet, physical activity, and weight using the Fitbit and Looseit! apps.
* Attend weekly online group sessions for the first 4 weeks, then biweekly sessions.
* If not meeting weight loss goals, be randomized to either Enhanced Lifestyle Intervention or Metformin arms of the study.
* If randomized to Metformin, participants will attend one in-person meeting with the study provider, get blood drawn for testing, and undergo a urine pregnancy test before starting the medication.
* Continue with biweekly group sessions or have regular check-in calls.
* If randomized to the Enhanced Lifestyle Intervention, participants will get a free Instacart membership, a 1:1 session with the study health counselor focused on meal planning and free grocery delivery once a week for the remainder of the study.
* Participants will meet every other week via Zoom with the health counselor and other participants in the enhanced lifestyle arm.
* At the end of the 6 months, all participants will come for an in-person visit to get blood drawn for testing. Participants will also be asked to bring in their infant, and the study team will measure the infant's weight and length.

Facilitated Transition to Primary Care for Postpartum
Boston, Massachusetts
The lack of postpartum primary care coordination is a missed opportunity to increase primary care engagement and manage chronic conditions early in life, especially for the \>30% of pregnant people who have or are at risk for these conditions. This study aims to increase postpartum primary care engagement, quality, and experience by strengthening postpartum transitions to primary care using a behavioral economics-informed, multi-component intervention integrated into usual inpatient postpartum care. Using a randomized controlled trial and repeated outcome assessments through administrative and survey data, this study will generate rigorous, actionable evidence to ensure primary care coordination becomes standard postpartum care practice, potentially catalyzing sustained primary care engagement throughout life.

Problem-Solving Education for Maternal Depression
Boston, Massachusetts
Within a research network of Head Start centers in Massachusetts, an efficacy trial of a stepped-care intervention (SCI) to address maternal depression, using intervention components that both prevent depression and help those in major depressive episode (MDE) engage with care, will be conducted. Both the prevention and engagement components of the model have strong, supportive randomized trial evidence for both their efficacy and safety; but they have yet to be synthesized and tested within a coordinated intervention, applicable to a broad population base. Stepped-care interventions are commonly used in mental health service projects, in which the intensity or type of service is calibrated to the severity of illness.

Nurturing Care Family Navigator for Food Insecurity
Las Vegas, Nevada
The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to determine whether a 6-month behavioral health intervention with a Nurturing Care Family Navigator (NCFN) improves levels of food security among postpartum low-income Medicaid or uninsured women identified as having very low or low food security in the past 12 months. We hypothesize that a behavioral health intervention applying a multisectoral nurturing care navigation approach facilitating access to health, nutrition, early learning, responsive care, and security and safety resources is likely to decrease levels of maternal-child food insecurity. The main question it aims to answer is:
* Does the behavioral health intervention with a Nurturing Care Family Navigator (NCFN) improves levels of food security? Outcome 1: Improve levels of food security
* Does the behavioral health intervention with a Nurturing Care Family Navigator (NCFN) increase knowledge to navigate barriers across the four pillars of food insecurity? Outcome 2: Increase knowledge across the four pillars of food insecurity
* Does the behavioral health intervention with a Nurturing Care Family Navigator (NCFN) increase self-efficacy to secure and sustain enrollment with community nurturing care services? Outcome 3: Increase self-efficacy to secure and sustain enrollment with community nurturing care services
Researchers will compare levels of food security among those receiving a navigation behavioral health intervention (consisted of 1:1 tailored navigation session and an educational workbook) compared to those receiving an educational workbook with messages across the four pillars of food insecurity (standard of care).
Participants will:
* Engage in intense weekly navigation 1:1 tailored session for 3 months
* Engage in follow up monthly navigation 1:1 tailored session for 3 months
* Participate in evaluation calls with a research assistant at enrollment, 3, 6, 12 months

MOMI PODS for Postpartum Health
Columbus, Ohio
The investigator's long-term goal is to mitigate pregnancy-related mortality (PRM) risk by systematically delivering integrated clinical and supportive care that is effective, equitable, and scalable. The investigator's central hypothesis is that the Multi-modal Maternal Infant Perinatal Outpatient Delivery System (MOMI PODS) will mitigate postpartum (PP) risk and reduce disparities in PP risk by improving biopsychosocial profiles and facilitating access to evidence-based clinical and supportive care. To test this hypothesis, the investigators will conduct a hybrid type 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) of MOMI PODS versus enhanced usual care (EUC, which we will term MOMI CARE) among a total sample of 384 mother-infant dyads (192/group) following pregnancy affected by a cardiometabolic and/or mental health condition. The investigators will enroll participants on PP day 1 and collect data at baseline and 6 months and 1 year PP. The investigators will collect implementation and service data across sites.

384 Participants Needed
Babies with single ventricle congenital heart disease (SVCHD) are often diagnosed during pregnancy. While prenatal diagnosis has important clinical benefits, it is often stressful and overwhelming for parents, and many express a need for psychological support. HeartGPS is a psychological intervention for parents who receive their baby's diagnosis of SVCHD during pregnancy. It includes 8 sessions with a psychologist, coupled with tailored educational resources, and a personalized care plan. The intervention focuses on fostering parent psychological adjustment and wellbeing, and supporting parents to bond with their baby in ways that feel right for them. Through this study, the investigators will learn if HeartGPS is useful and effective for parents and their babies when it is offered in addition to usual fetal cardiac care. The investigators will examine the effects of the HeartGPS intervention on parental anxiety, depression, and traumatic stress; fetal and infant brain development; parent-infant bonding; and infant neurobehavioral and neurodevelopmental outcomes. The investigators will also explore mechanisms associated with stress biology during pregnancy, infant brain development and neurodevelopmental outcomes, and parent and infant intervention effects.

Why Other Patients Applied
"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

Uterotonics for Postpartum Hemorrhage
Toronto, Ontario
This study will investigate the effects of drugs called "uterotonics" that help with the contraction of the uterus after a baby is born. This uterine contraction is very important to stop the bleeding after delivery. An uncontracted uterine state is called "uterine atony", which can lead to an excessive amount of post-delivery bleeding. Carbetocin is an uterotonic drug that works well to prevent post-delivery bleeding. In some cases, carbetocin is not enough to contract the uterus, and ongoing bleeding continues. When that happens, there are other uterotonic medications that can be used. In this study, we aim to find which uterotonic drug, amongst those available (oxytocin, carbetocin, ergometrine or carboprost), is more effective to lower the risk of post-delivery bleeding once carbetocin has already been administered.
This study will be done by using a very small sample of uterine tissue, taken from the incision site, following delivery by cesarean section. The sample is taken to the laboratory and will be exposed to carbetocin followed by other uterotonic drugs. The information obtained from this study will help modify the treatment for uterine atony and post-delivery bleeding to lower the risk further.

Carbetocin for Postpartum Hemorrhage
Toronto, Ontario
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) continues to be an increasing problem globally. Uterotonics play an essential role in the pharmacological management of uterine atony. Carbetocin, a long acting analog of oxytocin has been recommended as a first line uterotonic for PPH prophylaxis at cesarean delivery. Considering many woman have associated comorbidities and are at high risk of PPH, finding alternative pharmacological agents is essential. Calcium is a key factor for myometrial contractions and calcium blood levels can be low at the end of pregnancy. Both hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia could lead to a decrease in myometrial contractions. It is already been demonstrated that in both desensitized and naïve myometrium, normocalcemia provides a better uterine tone compared to hypo and hypercalcemia when oxytocin is given as the first uterotonic drug.
Currently, the role of extracelullar calcium in carbetocin- induced contractility is unknown. This will be the first ex vivo study to test the effects of extracellular calcium on oxytocin pretreated and naive myometrium. The results of this study will provide evidence on the use of this safe drug in clinical practice, particularly in women with labour arrest, and provide alternative pharmacological strategies to both prevention and treatment of PPH, thus improving our clinical practice.
The investigators hypothesize that extracellular normocalcemia would provide superior carbetocin-mediated contractility in both naive and oxytocin-pretreated myometrium compared with hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia.

Carbetocin vs Oxytocin for Postpartum Hemorrhage
Toronto, Ontario
The goal of this study is to compare 2 medications that are commonly used to prevent excess uterine bleeding (postpartum hemorrhage, or PPH) following cesarean delivery (CD), oxytocin and carbetocin. Most of the trials evaluating the preventative role of oxytocin and carbetocin after CD have focused on patient with low-risk of PPH.
This trial will focus on patients that are at increased risk of PPH, with risk factors such as: multiple gestation (twins, or more multiples), large baby, polyhydramnios (excess amniotic fluid), history of PPH, body mass index greater than 40, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and placenta previa.
The investigators hypothesize that carbetocin would be more effective than an oxytocin regimen in reducing the risk of PPH in patients undergoing CD with any of the biological high-risk factors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Postpartum Care clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Postpartum Care clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Postpartum Care trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Postpartum Care is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Postpartum Care medical study?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Postpartum Care clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Oli for Postpartum Hemorrhage, Lifestyle Intervention vs Metformin for Gestational Diabetes and Psychological Intervention for Parents of Babies with Congenital Heart Defects to the Power online platform.
