About this study

Official title: The Effect of Maternal Serum and Amniotic Fluid Progesterone Levels on Pregnancy Results

The aim of this study is to evaluate the amniotic fluid and serum progesterone level and pregnancy outcome

Read the detailed description

Studies have investigated the relationship between maternal serum progesterone level and low birth weight baby birth, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and early pregnancy bleeding. In some cases, patients are supported by oral or vaginal progesterone treatments during pregnancy. We also measure the relationship between maternal serum progesterone by measuring the level of amnion progesterone; We aimed to analyze the effects on pregnancy outcomes by observing preterm birth, premature rupture of membranes, low birth weight, baby gender, maternal problems that may occur during pregnancy, fetal problems.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • amniocentesisDiagnostic test

    amniocentesis will be performed to the pregnant women at 16-20 weeks who had a high-risk antenatal test. Furthermore, these women also give a blood sample (at 16-20 weeks) to compare the amniotic fluid and serum progesterone levels in association with pregnancy outcomes. We perform amniocentesis to evaluate genetic disorders in pregnant women who had his risk in the antenal test.

Study groups in NCT04400149
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
1amniotic fluid progesterone (this group will be evaluated by the amniotic fluid which was received via amniocentesis). This group consisted of pregnant women who had high risk in the antenal test and give consent to perform amniocentesis. Notwithstanding, amniocentesis detects chromosome abnormalities, neural tube defects, and genetic disorders for the fetuses. İn a routine amniocentesis, 1-2 ml amniotic fluid which was taken in the first place was discarded in order to prevent maternal contamination. Then 15-20 ml amniotic fluid was taken from all of the patients to diagnose genetic disorders of the fetuses. İn this study we evaluate the amniotic fluid progesterone in this 1-2 ml amniotic fluid which was discarded and throw away. Therefore, we are not performing an extra invasive procedure for pregnant women

What does the primary outcome measure?

pregnancy outcome (time frame: starting from 16 weeks, ending at the delivery of the baby). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04400149, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 2 Nov 2021.
