Summary

This study tests a 4-month coaching program for pregnant or recently postpartum doctors-in-training. Half the participants get one-on-one and group coaching sessions; the other half do not. Researchers will measure burnout, well-being, and confidence through surveys at the start, after 4 months, and at 7 months. The goal is to see if coaching can help these doctors feel better at work and in life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Coaching program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, scalable way to support pregnant doctors and reduce burnout.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 48 participants. The coaching is brief (4 months) and may not produce lasting benefits or apply to all settings.
