Wireless Physiologic Monitoring in Postpartum Women (WIMS)
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Women in sub-Saharan Africa have the highest rates of morbidity and mortality during childbirth. Despite significant increases in facility-based childbirth, quality gaps at the facility have limited reductions in maternal deaths. Infrequent monitoring of women around childbirth is a major gap in care that leads to delays in life-saving interventions. Simple increases in staffing will not overcome this gap, thus necessitating new strategies.
This project aims to use a simple wireless monitor to improve the detection of complications immediately after childbirth and allow clinicians to provide life-saving interventions when needed. Using a hybrid clinical effectiveness-implementation approach women delivered by cesarean in Mbarara, Uganda will be recruited to wear a wireless physiologic monitor for 24 hours after delivery and their delivering obstetricians recruited to use the monitoring system, including the receipt of text message alerts should women develop abnormalities in physiologic signs. Rates of morbidity and mortality will be compared with a control group of women delivered by the same obstetricians. Clinical adoption and implementation will be assessed with the RE-AIM implementation framework and semi-structured interviews.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention
|
The intervention in this study is the use of a wireless monitor to perform physiologic monitoring of women undergoing emergency cesarean delivery for the first 24 hours after completion of the cesarean and send alerts to responding clinicians should vital signs fall out of a pre-specified range.
