What this trial studies
This observational study aims to evaluate the Quality of Life Related to Care (QLRC) for pregnant women living with HIV at the Bichat-Claude Bernard Hospital in Paris, France. Participants will be recruited during a follow-up consultation and will complete three self-questionnaires at different stages: during early pregnancy, in the third trimester, and one year postpartum. The study will also collect retrospective data on prenatal and perinatal management and infant outcomes through medical records. The goal is to enhance patient care and inform health policy by understanding the unique challenges faced by this population.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are women aged 18 and older who are living with HIV and are pregnant with a due date between the first obstetric ultrasound and 28 weeks of amenorrhea.
Not a fit: Patients who may not benefit from this study include those who refuse to participate or are non-French speakers.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved care strategies and support for pregnant women living with HIV, enhancing their quality of life.
How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies focusing on quality of life in HIV-positive populations, this specific approach targeting pregnant women is relatively novel and underexplored.
