The REDUCED Trial: REDucing the Utilization of CEsarean Sections for Dystocia
Abstract
This project is a clustered randomized controlled trial of a knowledge translation intervention of new ACOG guidelines for the diagnosis of poor progress in labor. The intent is to reduce the rate of cesarean section (CS) in first time mothers at term (\>= 37 weeks), with a vertex presenting singleton fetus, without increasing maternal or neonatal morbidity. The guidelines were developed from data from the Consortium for Safe Labor. The unit of randomization will be sites in Alberta that deliver
Conditions: Cesarean Section, Dystocia.
Primary outcome: Rate of Cesarean section.
Enrollment: 88918 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 88,918 participants or records.
