Quick Post-Birth quiz may spot PTSD risk after emergency C-Section
NCT ID NCT07561632
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether asking new mothers a few questions within 48 hours of an unplanned C-section can predict who will develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) related to childbirth. Researchers will follow 420 women for three months, comparing early screening scores with later PTSD symptoms. The goal is to see if routine screening could help identify those who need extra support.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to routine early screening after unplanned C-sections to identify women at risk for PTSD and offer timely support.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The screening tools may not accurately predict PTSD, and results may not apply to all birthing people.
