Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of children presenting with CNM

    Composite neonatal morbidity (CNM) is any of the following: Apgar score \<5 at 5 minutes, seizure, fracture of skull, humerus, or clavicle, neonatal brachial plexus palsy, facial nerve palsy, oxygen supplementation \>4 hours, CPAP \>2 hours, mechanical ventilation, or death before discharge or IUFD.

    Up to 6 weeks after delivery

  • Number of children with birthweight above 4500 grams

    Immediately at birth

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of women presenting with CMM

    Up to 6 weeks after delivery

  • Number of children delivered by cesarean section

    Immediately at birth

  • Number of children admitted to NICU

    Up to 6 weeks after delivery

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 39 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Singleton pregnancy
  • Plan for vaginal delivery. Patients with prior cesarean section are eligible if they are planning for a trial of labor after cesarean section.
  • Gestational age 34 weeks 0 days to 37 weeks 0 days at time of enrollment
  • Dating of pregnancy by last menstrual period consistent with an ultrasound, ultrasound \<21 weeks and 6 days of gestation, or known date of conception in the setting of in vitro fertilization
  • No known major anomalies (anomalies requiring surgery antenatally or in the neonatal period, anomalies not compatible with life as determined by the physician)
  • LGA defined as estimated fetal weight (EFW) \> 90th percentile by Hadlock formula but \<4500 grams

You may not qualify if:

  • Pre-gestational diabetes or gestational diabetes on medication (oral or insulin, excluding metformin)
  • Planned cesarean delivery
  • Polyhydramnios
  • Known major fetal anomalies
  • Multiple gestation or selective reduction of multiple gestation after 14 weeks
  • Previous stillbirth at term
  • Indications for delivery at \<39 weeks. Common examples include:
  • Placenta previa
  • Placenta accreta
  • Vasa previa
  • History of classical cesarean section or myomectomy
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • Oligohydramnios (low amniotic fluid, defined as maximum vertical pocket \<2.0cm)
  • High-risk pregnancy as determined by the physician. Common examples include:
  • Pre-gestational diabetes or gestational diabetes on medication
  • +9 more criteria
