Enhanced recovery after cesarean and parent-infant bonding
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if a special care plan called ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) helps new mothers and fathers bond better with their babies after a planned or medically needed cesarean birth. You will be randomly assigned to standard care or the ERAS protocol to see which leads to stronger early bonding.
