Technology vs. medication monitoring for buprenorphine in pregnancy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares two approaches to help pregnant people stay on buprenorphine (a medication for opioid use disorder): one uses technology to support therapy, and the other uses standard medication monitoring. It aims to see which method works better for keeping you in treatment during pregnancy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at ways to predict and reduce harmful outcomes for pregnant people with opioid use disorder (OUD) and their babies. It focuses on people who are already receiving ongoing medication treatment during pregnancy and will follow them around delivery at a specific hospital.
This study looks at pregnancy and baby outcomes for people who are pregnant and taking buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. It may help doctors understand what to expect long-term for both parent and child when opioid treatment continues during pregnancy.
This study compares two medications, methadone and buprenorphine, to see which helps people stay in treatment for opioid use disorder. You may be eligible if you are starting a new treatment episode.
This study tests a behavioral support program designed to help people newly starting buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder stay engaged with their care. If you've recently started buprenorphine or just been released from incarceration and are beginning treatment, this trial may help you maintain consistent medication use and reduce the risk of relapse.
This study looks at how the placenta and baby's development may be affected when a mother takes buprenorphine or methadone for opioid use disorder during pregnancy. It aims to find better ways to monitor health and improve outcomes for both mothers and babies.
This trial tests whether taking buprenorphine (a medicine for opioid use disorder) through telemedicine works as well as standard in-person care. You may be enrolled if you’re seeking treatment for opioid use disorder and can safely follow study steps.
