About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Early Warning Scores: Preoperative Period in Pregnant Women

Our study aims to evaluate the use of early warning scores as a screening tool to predict obstetric mortality and morbidity in pregnant women who will undergo cesarean section.

Read the detailed description

Our study aims to evaluate the use of early warning scores as a screening tool to predict obstetric mortality and morbidity in pregnant women who will undergo cesarean section.

This prospective study included 304 patients undergoing cesarean section at Suleyman Demirel University between April 2022 and April 2023. Physiological parameters were assessed in all 304 pregnant women before the operation. Maternal early warning scores, including modified early obstetric warning score (MEOWS), maternal early warning score (MEWC), and maternal early warning triggers (MEWT), were calculated for each patient. Patients triggering the system were classified as Group 1 (risky patients), while those not triggering the system were classified as Group 2 (risk-free patients).

What is being measured

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

  1. MEOWS, MEWC and MEWT scores

    The presence of a "trigger" for MEOWS in all systems, defined as either a single severely abnormal parameter (falling in the "red" zone) or two slightly abnormal parameters (falling in the "yellow" zone), was categorized as the risky group. Absence or mildness of the trigger was considered as the risk-free group.

    Measured: One year

  2. MEWC score

    In the case of MEWC, the presence of only one abnormal parameter designated the risk group, while the absence of a trigger indicated the risk-free group.

    Measured: One year

  3. MEWT score

    For MEWT, the presence of a "trigger" defined as either a single severely abnormal parameter (falling in the "red" zone) or two mildly abnormal parameters (falling in the "yellow" zone) was categorized as the risky group, with the absence or mildness of the trigger considered as the risk-free group.

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. APGAR score

    APGAR scores at 1st and 5th minutes were calculated for postnatal babies.

    Measured: One year

  2. Aldrete score

    The Modified Aldrete Recovery Score System was computed for mothers to assess postoperative recovery.

    Measured: One year

  3. Glasgow Coma Scale

    The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) was used to evaluate the consciousness of pregnant women.

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing All patients who were pregnant and underwent cesarean section in people with Pregnancy Complications, run by Suleyman Demirel University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

MEOWS, MEWC and MEWT scores (time frame: One year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Jul 2024.
