Home management by remote self-monitoring in intermediate- and high-risk pregnancies: A retrospective study of 400 consecutive women.

Introduction: Home management in general is considered to improve patient well-being, patient involvement and cost-effectiveness, for obstetric patients as well. But concerns regarding inclusion of intermediate- and high-risk pregnant women are an issue and a limitation for clinical implementation. This retrospective study evaluated the outcome and safety of extended remote self-monitoring of maternal and fetal health in intermediate- and high-risk pregnancies.

Pelvic capacity in pregnant women, identified using magnetic resonance imaging.

Introduction: Maternal pelvic capacity plays a major role during childbirth because the passage of the fetus through the bony birth canal enables vaginal birth. Maternal birthing position may influence pelvic capacity because upright positions optimize capacity, possibly due to free movement of the pelvic joints. Herein, pelvic capacity was assessed by comparing changes in pelvic dimensions across pregnancy and in three birthing positions.

Antenatal magnesium sulphate for the prevention of cerebral palsy in infants born preterm: a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, multi-centre trial.

Objective: To study the effect of antenatal magnesium sulphate (MgSO ) on cerebral palsy (CP) in a manner that also provides adequate power for a linked trial sequential analysis.

Design: Double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, multi-centre trial.

Setting: Fourteen Danish obstetric departments.

Ready for the Triple Aim? Perspectives on organizational readiness for implementing change from a Danish obstetrics and gynecology department.

Background: As health care strives towards the Triple Aim of improved population health, patient experience, and reduced costs, an organization's readiness for change may be a key factor. The concept refers to the collective commitment of organizational members to a change and belief in their shared ability to make that change happen (efficacy). This study aims to assess the organizational readiness for implementing large-scale change at a clinical department in pursuit of the Triple Aim and to determine key associated factors.
