NCT ID NCT07572604
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether three telehealth visits with a community health worker after childbirth can help new mothers complete their postpartum checkup and spot complications sooner. Researchers will compare 500 women who get these calls plus standard care against those who only get standard care. The goal is to see if this low-cost support reduces emergency visits and readmissions.
