Study Summary

This trial will research ways to reduce maternal sepsis deaths, which disproportionately affect Black, poor, and underserved birthing people.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English or Spanish-speaking individuals aged 18 or older who are clinicians, staff, or birthing persons at New York Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, NYP Allen, Harlem Hospital, and Lincoln Hospital. It focuses on those with delivery hospitalizations and postpartum readmissions between 2021-2025.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study evaluates a maternal sepsis safety bundle designed to reduce the risk of sepsis during labor and postpartum periods. This is particularly aimed at helping racial and ethnic minoritized communities who face higher risks.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves implementing a safety protocol rather than testing a new medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be indirect impacts related to changes in clinical practice.

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Patients Admitted for Delivery (Post-Implementation)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients admitted for delivery at one of the partnering hospitals. EHR records from Columbia, Lincoln, Harlem, and Allen hospitals will be reviewed to evaluate process and outcome measures post-maternal sepsis bundle implementation. EHR data will be used from delivery hospitalizations.
Group II: Hospital StakeholdersActive Control1 Intervention
Hospital stakeholders at the partnering hospitals who participate in 90 min focus group discussion about maternal sepsis bundle implementation.
Group III: Patients Admitted for Delivery (Pre-implementation)Active Control1 Intervention
Patients admitted for delivery at one of the partnering hospitals. EHR records from Columbia, Lincoln, Harlem, and Allen hospitals will be reviewed to evaluate process and outcome measures pre-maternal sepsis bundle implementation. EHR data will be used from delivery hospitalizations from 2021-2022.
