A Clinical Phase II Study of the Materna Device to Shorten Delivery Time During Childbirth

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Childbirth

In brief

This feasibility study is a prospective, non-randomized, single arm study to evaluate safety and prevention of maternal pelvic soft-tissue damage using the Materna Medical Device. The device will be used during the first stage of labor, following initiation of epidural anesthesia and after the cervix has dilated to between 3-8 cm. Up to 20 subjects will be included in the initial study, with the option to increase the number of subjects to 50 based on early data.
