Obesity in pregnancy along with delivery by cesarean section in obese women is associated with several complications as compared to normal weight women. The longer the woman is pregnant, the longer she is at risk. In an otherwise low-risk pregnant woman at term, it is an ongoing clinical dilemma, whether the benefits of elective induction of labor and termination of the pregnancy will outweigh the potential harms from concomitant induction and delivery process. The proposed study is a randomized controlled study of elective induction versus expectant management in obese women. The study will be carried out as a national multicenter study with inclusion of 1900 participants from Danish delivery wards. The null hypothesis is that the caesarean section rate is similar with elective induction of labor at 39 weeks of gestation, compared with expectant management among pregnant women with pre- or early pregnancy BMI≥30.",[28,29,30],"Pregnancy","Obesity","Parturition",[32,33,34],"Induction of labor","Expectant management","Cesarean section","RECRUITING","2026-06-22",{"date":38,"type":39},"2026-06-26","ACTUAL",{"date":41,"type":39},"2020-10-19",{"date":43,"type":22},"2026-07",{"name":45,"class":46},"University of Aarhus","OTHER",12,{"id":49,"slug":50,"hasResults":11,"nctId":51,"briefTitle":52,"officialTitle":53,"acronym":54,"eligibilityCriteria":55,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":56,"minAge":19,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":57,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":59,"phases":4,"briefSummary":60,"conditions":61,"keywords":63,"overallStatus":66,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":67,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":68,"startDateStruct":70,"completionDateStruct":72,"leadSponsor":74,"locationsCount":4},"100604686","the-experience-of-fathers-and-mothers-in-relation-to-the-presence-of-the-father-at-the-birth-in-the-case-of-a-planned-caesarean-section-a-qualitative-phenomenological-study-100604686","NCT07152743","The Experience of Fathers and Mothers in Relation to the Presence of the Father at the Birth in the Case of a Planned Caesarean Section: a Qualitative Phenomenological Study","L'Esperienza Del Padre e Della Madre in Relazione Alla Presenza Del Padre All'Evento Parto in Caso di Taglio Cesareo Programmato: Uno Studio Qualitativo Fenomenologico","\"PARENTS\"","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Women who have undergone an elective cesarean section\n* Women who have provided written informed consent\n* Women with gestational age \\> 37 weeks + 0 days\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Fathers or mothers under 18 years of age\n* Fathers or mothers unable to read and understand the Italian language","ALL",{"count":58,"type":22},60,"OBSERVATIONAL","Pregnancy and childbirth represent a crucial transition for couples, involving significant psychological and emotional adaptation. The World Health Organization recommends that all women have the possibility to be accompanied by a support person of their choice during labor and birth. The presence of a trusted companion can provide emotional reassurance, improve communication with health professionals, and support non-pharmacological pain management, often reducing the need for medical interventions.\n\nFathers who attend childbirth frequently describe their participation as a meaningful and positive experience, strengthening their relationship with both the mother and the newborn. However, in the case of elective cesarean section, the father's presence in the operating room is not always allowed, especially when there is a high risk of complications (such as major hemorrhage). This variability may influence how mothers and fathers experience the birth.\n\nThis qualitative, single-center, non-funded study aims to explore and describe the lived experiences of mothers and fathers regarding the presence or absence of the father during an elective cesarean section.\n\nAfter informed consent, couples will be invited to participate in a semi-structured interview conducted 48-72 hours after birth, during postpartum hospitalization at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS in Rome. The interview, lasting approximately 20-30 minutes, will be audio-recorded and anonymized. Participants may withdraw at any time without consequences for their care.\n\nThe primary objective is to describe the experience of both mothers and fathers in relation to whether the father was present or absent at the birth. Secondary objectives include:\n\ndescribing demographic and obstetric characteristics of participating women,\n\nexploring expectations and emotions of fathers who attended the cesarean birth and of their partners,\n\nexploring the experiences of fathers who could not be present, and of their partners,\n\nevaluating the perceived support provided by healthcare staff,\n\nidentifying unexpected needs or desires expressed by participants.\n\nA purposive sample of approximately 30 couples will be recruited (15 where the father is present and 15 where he is absent). Recruitment will continue until data saturation is reached. Data will be analyzed using thematic analysis, following established qualitative research methods.\n\nThis study will provide new insights into how the presence or absence of the father during elective cesarean section shapes the birth experience for both parents. The results may support policies and practices aimed at improving emotional well-being, strengthening family bonds, and enhancing the quality of maternity care.",[62,30],"Cesarean Section",[64,65,62],"Parent","Father","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2025-09-03",{"date":69,"type":39},"2025-09-10",{"date":71,"type":22},"2025-09",{"date":73,"type":22},"2026-02",{"name":75,"class":46},"Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS"]
