Stress and mother-infant heart health study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how stress affects the health of mothers and their babies, specifically heart health. It will test whether relaxation training during pregnancy can lower heart disease risk later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a mother who already took part in a larger study about pregnancy and preeclampsia risk.

This study tests a structured mindfulness program (MBCT-T) to help people who have elevated stress and/or mild anxiety or depression in the setting of heart disease or heart risk factors. It may help improve emotional well-being and stress levels while you live with these health concerns.
This study tests whether regular mindfulness sessions can help pregnant people who are at high risk of delivering early stay calmer and cope better while they are in the hospital. It may be helpful for people who can attend sessions for several weeks.
This trial tests if mindfulness training and a wearable sensor can help prevent high blood pressure disorders like preeclampsia in pregnant people at moderate or high risk. It is designed for those early in pregnancy (16 weeks or less) who are not already doing regular mindfulness practices.
This study tests a mindfulness-based program to help reduce stress in first-time pregnant women. You will learn simple mental exercises through online sessions to feel calmer during pregnancy.
This trial looks at how resilience (how well people cope with stress) and brain health change over time in older adults who already joined an earlier study. You may be eligible if you participated in that “parent study.”
This study follows up with mothers, children, and co-parents who took part in an earlier mental health study. Researchers want to learn how family mental health changes over time and what factors may help or challenge families.
