No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The anticipated birth of an extremely low gestational age infant presents many complex and ethically challenging questions, including whether to initiate resuscitation or comfort care after delivery. Failure to identify and align decision-making to parents' values during periviabilty counseling may result in greater opportunity for decisional regret. The goal of the proposed research is to assess decisional regret in mothers of extremely premature births and to compare decisional regret in mothers who chose resuscitation at time of delivery to those who chose comfort care. Approximately 1000 mothers of infants born extremely premature at 2 perinatal centers in the US will be surveyed.
