About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial of Amniotic Fluid Index Compared Between After Upright and Left Lateral Decubitus Maternal Position Change

Comparison of amniotic fluid index between before and after maternal position change in Upright and left lateral decubitus maternal position

Read the detailed description

Amniotic fluid has many important roles in fetal development such as the development of the digestive tract and respiratory system. The quantity of amniotic fluid can be measured by ultrasonography, measuring the deepest pocket in 4 quadrants of uterus then summarize as one value known as "amniotic fluid index"(AFI). The AFI has the normal range between 5-25 cm. The low AFI (< 5 cm) is associated with abnormal fetal heart rate, and the abnormal AFI does affect to the treatment during the antepartum and intrapartum phase. However , there is the study shown that when compared to the single deepest pocket (SDP) , AFI could detect the oligohydramnios more which might led to the unnecessary labor induction or operative delivery without the significant change of perinatal outcome. To increase the accuracy of AFI, we theorize that maternal position change might affect the amniotic fluid position which would increase the visual of the amniotic fluid as well.

Study groups in NCT03536689
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Upright maternal position changeExperimentalThe participant will be measured by ultrasonograhy for amniotic fluid index in supine position before maternal position change, then she will do the upright position for 5 minute. After 5 minute of upright position , she will lie down in supine position and she will be measured by ultrasonograhy for amniotic fluid index after upright position.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Amniotic fluid index
Left lateral decubitus maternal position changeExperimentalthe participant will be measured by ultrasonograhy for amniotic fluid index in supine position before maternal position change, then she will do the left lateral decubitus position for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes of left lateral decubitus position , she will lie down in supine position and she will be measured by ultrasonograhy for amniotic fluid index after left lateral decubitus position.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Amniotic fluid index

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Amniotic fluid index change after maternal position change

    Amniotic fluid index before and after maternal position change

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Amniotic fluid index in people with Pregnancy Related, run by Department of Medical Services Ministry of Public Health of Thailand at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Amniotic fluid index change after maternal position change (time frame: 15 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2020.
