Midwife-Led care may reduce unnecessary medical interventions in childbirth

NCT ID NCT05483101

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 597 women with low-risk pregnancies to see if a special midwife-led care unit (called Filière Physiologique) leads to more natural births compared to standard hospital care. The special unit offers personalized support from a midwife throughout pregnancy and birth, while still being inside a hospital for emergencies. The goal was to see if this approach reduces the need for tools or C-sections and improves the overall birth experience.
