MIRACLE Trial Summary

This trial will test an intervention to reduce African American maternal morbidity and mortality disparities in two Michigan counties.

Who is the study for?
The MIRACLE Project is for African American women who gave birth in Genesee or Kent counties, Michigan during specific periods (2016-2019 and 2022-2025) and were covered by Medicaid. There are no exclusion criteria, so all women from these areas and times can participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study compares a multilevel intervention aimed at reducing racial disparities in severe maternal morbidity and mortality against standard enhanced prenatal care services provided to African American mothers in the selected Michigan counties.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves community, provider, and system-level interventions rather than medications or medical procedures, it does not have typical side effects. However, there may be indirect impacts on participants' experiences of healthcare.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the hoped-for outcomes of this investigation?

"The aim of this clinical trial, which will be observed over a period encompassing pregnancy to one year post-birth, is to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality related to childbirth. Secondary objectives are increased enrolment in prenatal care programmes such as MIHP & Health Start, the number of outpatient visits during and after pregnancy (with higher being better), cost effectiveness through Medicaid claim data comparing expenses between SMM patients and non-SMM ones plus using the value of statistical life for monetizing prevented fatalities from birth. Additionally, measuring intervention costs per unit reduction on NSMM score is also part of the plan."
