Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT06980025RecruitingPhase 3
Aspirin dose trial to prevent preterm birth
This study tests if a higher dose of aspirin can help prevent another early delivery in women who have had a preterm birth before. If you qualify, you would take either a standard or escalated dose of aspirin during your current pregnancy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 14 years+ - NCT07212361Recruiting
Restoring infant gut bacteria with mother's microbes
This study tests whether giving healthy newborns a special mix of their own mother's friendly bacteria can help build a healthy gut. It is for mothers who had a healthy pregnancy, plan to breastfeed, and live near Helsinki.
HelsinkiAges Up to 50 years - NCT05763537Recruiting

Pain relief and recovery after planned C-section
This trial studies how well pain is controlled and how quickly women recover after a planned C-section under spinal anesthesia. It compares different pain relief methods to find the best approach.
BellinzonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07333729Recruiting
Spinal anesthesia's effect on baby's nervous system during C-section
This study looks at how spinal anesthesia during a planned C-section may affect the baby's autonomic nervous system, which controls things like heart rate and breathing. It aims to help doctors better understand how to keep both mother and baby safe.
LilleAges 18–45 - NCT07430358Recruiting
AI risk assessment for first-time mothers in labor
This trial tests whether artificial intelligence can help predict how labor will go for first-time mothers and whether a C-section might be needed. It involves women who are at full term with a single baby in head-down position and plan to deliver vaginally.
Jerusalem, IsraelAges 18 years+ - NCT06206044Enrolling by invitation
Evaluating typical spinal blocks for cesarean delivery
This study looks at how well the standard spinal block works for cesarean sections. It aims to understand the typical effects to improve care for patients having a C-section.
Portland, OregonAges 15–55 - NCT07274527Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for babies exposed to thick meconium during labor
This trial tests whether adding fluid into the womb (amnioinfusion) during labor can protect a baby's lungs and health after being exposed to thick meconium (baby's first poop). It may help reduce breathing problems and improve long-term outcomes.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06925152RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block for C-section pain in complex surgery history
This study tests a targeted numbing injection (a nerve block) in the belly wall during C-sections to improve pain control and recovery for people who have had multiple or complex abdominal surgeries. It aims to see if this approach reduces the need for strong pain medicines.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18–50 - NCT07258459Recruiting

Tegucigalpa, Francisco Morazán DepartmentAges 18–49 - NCT05599178Recruiting
Doppler ultrasound in the brain vessels before delivery
This study uses a special ultrasound (Doppler) to look at blood flow in a baby’s brain vessels within 24 hours before birth. Researchers want to see whether these findings relate to birth outcomes, like how the baby does right after delivery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05114096RecruitingPhase 4
One-time steroid shot to help babies stay healthier early
This trial studies whether giving a single steroid medicine shot during pregnancy can improve outcomes when preterm birth is at risk. The goal is to help the baby’s lungs and overall health before early delivery.

TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT06030063Recruiting
