About this study

Sleep is critical to mental and physical health following childbirth. However, patients who are hospitalized for labor and delivery may be admitted for days with significant impacts on sleep levels. Little is known about sleep and activity levels in inpatients during nighttime and daytime following childbirth and how this may affect their mental and physical health and wellbeing. If abnormalities are identified, targeted interventions may be possible to optimize recovery following delivery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of inpatient postpartum sleep using actigraphy

    Participants will wear an acitgraphy watch during their inpatient stay to measure sleep.

    Measured: During inpatient stay (up to 7 days)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Association between actigraphy data with inpatient and outpatient postpartum Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs)

    Measurement of postpartum actigraphy data to associate with patient reported outcome measures (PROM) (ObsQoR-10, Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Score, WHO-QOL-BREF and Bergen Insomnia Scale Score) given by face to face then remote interview

    Measured: Day 1-7, 6 and 12 weeks

  2. Association between inpatient actigraphy data and patient demographic, medical, obstetric, psychiatric, neonatal and anesthetic factors

    Participants will wear an acitgraphy watch during their inpatient stay to measure physical activity and sleep.

    Measured: During inpatient stay and outpatient follow up (up to 7 days)

  3. Association between outpatient sleep data with patient demographic, medical, obstetric, psychiatric, neonatal and anesthetic factors

    Participants will be interviewed at 6 and 12 weeks with PROM questions and sleep diaries to assess for association with demographic, medical obstetric, psychiatric neonatal and anaesthetic factors.

    Measured: 6 and 12 weeks

  4. Association between objective (artigraphy) and subjective sleep assessment using diaries and PROMs

    Participants will wear an acitgraphy watch during their inpatient stay to measure physical activity and sleep. PROM survey data during inpatient day 1-7 and outpatient 6- 12 week interview.

    Measured: Day 1-7, 6 and 12 weeks

  5. Determine population norms of objective and subjective sleep measures in the postpartum population.

    Participants will wear an acitgraphy watch during their inpatient stay to measure physical activity and sleep. PROM survey data during inpatient day 1-7 and outpatient 6 and 12 week interview.

    Measured: Day 1-7, 6 and 12 weeks

  6. Association between inpatient sleep and physical activity, PROMs and peripartum course with longer term outpatient sleep measures

    Participants will wear an acitgraphy watch during their inpatient stay to measure physical activity and sleep. PROM survey data during inpatient day 1-7 and outpatient 6 and 12 week interview.

    Measured: Day 1-7, 6 and 12 weeks

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?

Assessment of inpatient postpartum sleep using actigraphy (time frame: During inpatient stay (up to 7 days)). 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.
