NCT ID NCT06201936

First seen Aug 06, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study surveys pregnant women before their anesthesia consultation to learn what they already know about epidural and spinal pain relief for childbirth, and where that knowledge comes from—such as the internet, friends, or healthcare providers. The goal is to understand the sources and gaps in information so that future education can be better tailored. Participation involves answering an anonymous online questionnaire.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Survey on pre-existing knowledge about neuroaxial (epidural/spinal) pain relief for childbirth
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better tailor childbirth pain-relief education to what pregnant women already know and where they get their information.
What could go wrong
This is an observational survey, not a treatment test, so it won't directly change care. Responses may not represent all pregnant women, and self-reported knowledge may not be accurate.
