The aim of the current study is to get insight into the in potential lifelong consequences of active disease and or prednisone use during pregnancy on the children of women with rheumatoid arthritis. As readout it uses indicators (risk factors) for…
Developing a risk score based on established risk factors and personality traits, to predict possible postnatal anxiety/depression with or without problems in bonding between mother and child at the first consult at the midwives practice or…
To assess the effects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in pregnant women with symptoms of anxiety or depression on the child*s behavioral/emotional problems. In addition, we aim to study its effects on the child*s development, maternal mental…
Investigate whether characteristics of uterine activity during labour measured using EHG are associated with the rate of cervical dilatation.
Observe the adherence rate of antidepressants during pregnancy and secondary exploration of possible factors which contribute to non-adherence
In this study, we will investigate the use of optical spectroscopy in determining neonatal bilirubin and hemoglobin blood levels. The outcome and accuracy of the optical spectroscopy measurements will be compared to the outcome of laboratory blood…
