研究概览
简要总结
The aim of this feasibility study is to test recruitment of participants into Phase 1 of the study and then the re-recruitment and retention of participants in Phase 2 of the study. The investigators will also be assessing the acceptability of recruitment strategy and data collection to participants.
The effect of pre-pregnancy factors (biophysical, genetic, socioeconomic, behavioural and psychological) on obstetric, cardiovascular, socioeconomic, behavioural and psychological outcomes will all be examined.
详细描述
The aim of this study is to recruit 300 women. The investigators anticipate that a subset of recruits will become pregnant during the pilot study.
This is a feasibility study with two phases:
- Phase 1: A detailed characterisation of nulliparous women who have an address in Oxfordshire or work in Oxfordshire
- Phase 2: Detailed assessment of events during and immediately after a first viable pregnancy.
During the Phase 1 visit:
- Participation is explained by a research nurse/midwife, any questions are answered and women, who agree, sign the consent form.
- A questionnaire covering medical and family history, socioeconomic information, behavioural factors and psychological measures will be completed.
- Baseline anthropometry - height, weight, hip/ waist ratio, USS measurement of fat (thigh and abdomen), bioimpedence.
- Cardiovascular - pulse and BP (peripheral / central), arterial stiffness, echocardiogram, carotid imaging and endothelial function (endo-check) tests are completed.
- Fasting venous blood sample (maximum 40 mls) including whole blood for maternal DNA.
- Urine sample
- Salivette
