INTRAUTERINE GROWTH RESTRICTION

This study tests whether taking 150 mg of aspirin daily, starting before 20 weeks of pregnancy, can prevent serious problems like preeclampsia, poor fetal growth, placental abruption, preterm birth, and death in pregnant women with chronic high blood pressure. About 500 women wil…

This study looks at whether a structured ultrasound program (OxGRIP) can help detect babies that are not growing well in the womb, which is a major risk factor for stillbirth. The program adds a routine scan at 36 weeks and extra scans for at-risk women. Researchers will compare …

This study aims to better understand pre-eclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), serious pregnancy complications affecting about 9% of pregnancies. Researchers will collect placenta, blood, and urine samples from 500 pregnant women—both with and without these condit…

This study follows 27 pregnant women living at high altitude in Bolivia and compares them to women at sea level. Researchers will use heart ultrasounds and blood tests to see how the body adapts to low oxygen levels during pregnancy. The goal is to better understand why some wome…

This study uses MRI scans to measure how well oxygen moves through the placenta in pregnancies complicated by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), where the baby is not growing as expected. Researchers will compare MRI results with placenta tissue after birth and track the bab…
