Pregnant Volunteers Needed: Research Study Looks at Possible Risk Factors for Stillbirth

Each year around 24,000 Babies are Stillborn in the United States. In many, the cause is unclear.

Volunteers are needed to participate in a paid National Institutes of Health (NIH) Study conducted by Professor JF Strasburger and Professor RT Wakai, to learn more about fetal heart findings in the following high risk pregnancy conditions:

History of Stillbirth after 20 weeks gestation
Fetal Congenital Heart Defects
Gastroschisis
Hydrops Fetalis
Mono Twin Pregnancy

To be eligible you must be at least 18 years or older AND currently 4 to 9 months pregnant.

The study involves 2 visits of 1 to 3 hours each at the Wisconsin Institute of Medical Research (WIMR) on the UW Madison Medical Campus. You are compensated for your time.

After your baby is born, an ECG will be performed within the first 4 weeks of your baby’s birth.

If you would like to participate in this study, please contact Gretchen Eckstein, BSN, Study Coordinator at (414) 266-3539.

We encourage you to discuss this study (Clinical Trials.gov, NCT# 03775954) and any other study with your provider before participating.
