HOME: Home Monitoring of High-risk Pregnancies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
High-risk pregnancies often require long-term hospitalization or outpatient maternal and/or fetal monitoring, placing a burden on patients, hospital resources and society. The demand for intensified pregnancy surveillance and interventions is increasing, due to the increased prevalence of risk factors like obesity and advanced maternal age, as well as altered guidelines resulting in increasing labor induction rates.The main aims of the HOME study (Home monitoring of pregnancies at risk) are to assess if home monitoring of selected high-risk pregnancies for maternal and fetal wellbeing is feasible, safe (in a clinical trial), cost-efficient, and simultaneously empowers the users.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Feasibility of Home monitoring of high-risk pregnancies [2022-2035]
Development of secure data transfer systems from home to electronic patient records at the hospital
Secondary Outcome Measures
- User acceptability of home monitoring [2022-2035]
Patient expectations (prior to intervention) and reported acceptability and quality of life
- Clinical safety of home monitoring [2022-2035]
Non-inferior compared to patients not undergoing home monitoring ("controls")
- Health economics of home monitoring [2022-2035]
Non-inferior compared to health economics in patients not undergoing home monitoring ("controls")
- Placenta-associated biomarkers: improving CTG prediction of adverse outcomes? [2023-2035]
Do placenta-associateed circulating biomarkers prior to delivery, used in an algoritm, improve CTG-assisted prediction of fetal asphyxia?
