Brief Summary

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

This is a randomized controlled trial of a low income and low health literacy population of pregnant women from a diverse racial and ethnic background to assess the effectiveness of a pre-visit educational video on prenatal genetic screening and testing options.

Detailed Description

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

During pregnancy, women are routinely counseled about the risks of their offspring to have a chromosomal abnormality or birth defects. Both prenatal screening and diagnostic testing options to exclude aneuploidy should be offered to all pregnant women early in their pregnancy. A standardized educational video on prenatal screening may enhance a patient's understanding and knowledge of testing and support more informed decisions.

The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare patient knowledge scores on prenatal genetic screening before and after a standard prenatal care visit compared to the addition of a pre-appointment educational video.

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Primary purpose: assess and compare patient knowledge on prenatal genetic screening before and after a standard prenatal care visit compared to the addition of a pre-appointment educational video.

All participants will complete a 15-item questionnaire on prenatal genetic screening options at baseline and after routine prenatal care visit.

Participants randomized to the control group, will have a routine prenatal care appoinment, while the intervention group will watch a pre-appointment 4.5 minute educational video entitled "How to decide about prenatal genetic testing".
