NCT ID NCT07557303
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests a simple tool—short information cards on a mobile phone—to help pregnant people feel more confident when deciding about prenatal genetic screening. About 1,400 participants will use the cards before their first doctor visit, or receive usual care. Researchers will then compare how confident each group feels about their decision.
