Non-invasive imaging of back curvature in pregnant women and its effects on delivery outcomes

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to collect measurement data on the spinal curvature (lordosis) in pregnant women and analyze its relationship with delivery outcomes. By utilizing a non-invasive imaging technique, the researchers will validate a new method for measuring the angle of lordosis. The study will focus on low-risk pregnant women aged 20 to 40, aiming to establish correlations between spinal curvature and various birth outcomes. The findings could provide insights into how biomechanical factors influence pregnancy and delivery.
