Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research is to understand the relationship between trust in the health care system and choice of contraception during the postpartum period among pregnant women receiving prenatal care.

Research subjects will complete a questionnaire at enrollment and between delivery and within 5 days of hospital discharge.

A chart review will also be completed to gather use of a birth control method at the six week postpartum visit as well as pertinent medical diagnoses and recorded data such as height, weight, body mass index, and contraceptive plan as documented in the postpartum medical chart.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aims of the proposed research are three-fold:

1. To identify whether trust in the health care system is associated with choice of the highest efficacy contraception (intrauterine contraception, implantable contraception, and sterilization) in the immediate postpartum period among pregnant women receiving prenatal care.
2. To explore which patient-level factors (sociodemographic, reproductive history, future pregnancy intentions) and provider-level factors (antenatal contraceptive counseling) are associated with choice of the highest efficacy contraception in the immediate postpartum period among pregnant women receiving prenatal care.
3. To determine whether trust in the health care system is altered during the receipt of prenatal care or delivery.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Questionnaire

A questionnaire will be administered during the early stages of prenatal care \& again during the postpartum period. The initial questionnaire will assess trust in the health care system, locus of control, religiosity, health literacy \& collect information about demographics, contraceptive \& reproductive history, future pregnancy intentions, \& baseline knowledge about contraception. The postpartum questionnaire will repeat questions about future pregnancy \& contraception intentions, trust in the health care system, knowledge of contraception and collect new information about characteristics of antenatal contraceptive counseling received including whether a provider recommended a specific method of contraception, the amount of counseling received, \& the type of counseling received.
