Pregnancy Loss

Each year world-wide, 2.5 million fetuses die unexpectedly in the last half of pregnancy, 25,000 in the United States, making fetal demise ten-times more common than Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. This study will apply a novel type of non-invasive monitoring, called fetal magnetocardiography (fMCG) used thus far to successfully evaluate fetal arrhythmias, in order to discover potential hidden electrophysiologic abnormalities that could lead to fetal demise in five high-risk pregnancy conditions associated with fetal demise.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of early initiation of double low-dose aspirin in pregnant women. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does this dose and timing of aspirin reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia compared to standard recommendations? Does this dose and timing of aspirin reduce the risk of pregnancy loss compared to standard recommendations? Participants will begin taking at no later than 6 weeks 6 days gestational age, either 162mg of aspirin through delivery or placebo until 12 weeks and then 81mg of aspirin through delivery.

This study aims to examine the effects of individualized grief support for women experiencing pregnancy loss.

The sample will include 48 women; those with severe depression will be excluded. Quantitative data will be analyzed using SPSS, and qualitative data will be analyzed using content analysis.

Placental organoids represent an in vitro 3D reconstruction model of the human placenta and of its complex cellular organization to evaluate the pharmacological effect in terms of placentation, gene expression, protein synthesis and placental secretomics.

This study aims to investigate the microbiome of women with previously proven fertility who plan to become pregnant.
