A Non-investigational Product (IP) Study to Investigate Lung Function in Women in the Third Stage of Labour
An Enabling Study to Compare the Inhalation Profiles of Women in the Third Stage of Labour to Those of Non-pregnant Female Volunteers and to Explore Whether There Are Any Differences Which Could Impact the Delivery of an Inhaled Medicinal Product

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to record and compare the inhalation profiles of non pregnant women and those who are in the third stage of labour. The inhalation profiles will be recorded from consenting women as they inhale with maximal effort through an inhalation profile recorder \[Glaxosmithkline (GSK), Ware\]. The recorder will simulate resistance to airflow and will be representative of a dry powder inhaler of moderate resistivity. The inhalation endpoints will include Peak Pressure Drop, Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate, Inhaled Volume, Inhalation time, Average Inhalation Flow Rate and Acceleration rate which will be compared between the two female cohorts. Inhalation profiles recorded in this way may subsequently be used to study the in-vitro performance of investigational materials across inhalation parameters representative of the target patient population. An appropriate number of subjects will be consented so that approximately 40 subjects (20 non-pregnant females and 20 stage three labour subjects) complete assessments. The inhalation profiles will be recorded on the same day of screening or at another time within a span of 50 days

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (12)
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Peak pressure drop
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out by measuring the Peak pressure Drop (kPa) using the inhalation profile recorder
Screening, Up to Day 50
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate \[Liters/minute (L/min)\] using the inhalation profile recorder
Screening, Up to Day 50
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Inhaled Volume
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhaled Volume (L) using the inhalation profile recorder
Screening, Up to Day 50
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Inhalation time
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for the Inhalation time measured in seconds(s)
Screening, Up to Day 50
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Average Inhalation Flow Rate
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment will be carried out for Average Inhalation Flow Rate (L/min) measured using the inhalation profile recorder
Screening, Up to Day 50
Characterization of the inhalation profile of non-pregnant women by measuring Acceleration rate
Up to three inhalation profiles will be recorded in the semi-supine position and the assessment of Acceleration rate (L/min/s) will be measured using the inhalation profile recorder
Screening, Up to Day 50
