NCT ID NCT05570630
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This completed trial tested a program to increase COVID-19 vaccination among pregnant women. Over 6,900 participants were involved across OB/GYN practices. The program included training for healthcare providers, reminders, and feedback on vaccination rates. The goal was to see if these steps could raise vaccination rates and protect more mothers and babies from severe COVID-19.
