Study Summary
This trial will test if music can reduce the impact of chronic stress on pregnant Black women, and if it can reduce preterm births and improve baby outcomes.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy pregnant Black women aged 18 to 40 in their first trimester. It's not for those who aren't pregnant, have chronic health issues affecting pregnancy, or take regular medication (other than prenatal vitamins).Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares a music intervention (MI) with a sham control (SC), which involves only talking. The goal is to see if MI can lessen the stress effects on pregnant women, reduce premature births, and boost infant health.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-medical interventions like music and conversation, side effects are minimal but may include emotional responses or discomfort due to participation.
