NCT ID NCT04393259

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

Summary

This study looks at a special antenatal clinic called the Rainbow Clinic, designed for women who have previously experienced stillbirth or neonatal death. Researchers will track pregnancy outcomes and measure anxiety and depression in 500 women attending these clinics across the UK. The goal is to see if this model of care improves both medical results and emotional well-being.
