What this Trial Is About
Researchers are conducting an observational, descriptive, and prospective study across eight maternity units in Lorraine and Champagne-Ardenne. The study aims to compare the percentage of "avoidable" maternal-fetal transfers, defined as transfers where the delivery later meets the acceptance criteria of the sending maternity unit. This research addresses concerns about the necessity and complexity of such transfers, especially when logistical and human resource challenges arise during maternal-fetal transfer requests. The study involves prospectively including all maternal-fetal transfers during the study period without changing the usual care for the pregnant women. Both the sending and receiving maternity teams will complete questionnaires describing the transfer conditions and pregnancy outcomes. The study evaluates how often emergency response units like SMUR are called and the organizational challenges involved in these transfers. Participants will be involved through data collection using questionnaires completed by maternity teams, describing transfer details and pregnancy outcomes. Researchers will measure the percentage of avoidable maternal-fetal transfers up to six weeks after transfer, obstetrical indications up to 48 hours after transfer, and organizational arrangements up to six months after maternity unit inclusion. The study runs from April 2024 to April 2025 and monitors transfer outcomes without affecting patient care.
