First seen Jan 23, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study tests whether small wearable sensors can track movement and walking during the first stage of labor in women who have a low-dose epidural. Researchers want to see if these sensors can help monitor how well the epidural is working, predict fall risk, and understand labor progress. The study involves 30 pregnant women and is focused on gathering information, not on providing a new treatment.
