Could doctor bias harm pregnant patients? new study investigates

NCT ID NCT06531694

Summary

This study aims to understand if experiencing weight stigma or discrimination from healthcare providers during pregnancy contributes to health problems like gestational diabetes or birth complications. Researchers will follow 800 pregnant women with a higher body weight to see if their experiences of stigma, along with other psychological factors, are linked to these outcomes. The goal is to gather knowledge to improve care, not to test a treatment.
