United States162 participantsStarted 2021-02-01

Plain-language summary

The objective of this study is to assess if the addition of an early postpartum visit improves attendance at postpartum visits. We seek to evaluate if an additional early postpartum visit improves patient education, satisfaction, or trust in the clinicians during the postpartum period; all of which may ultimately facilitate improved outcomes. Additionally, we seek to explore patient preferences for postpartum care delivery.
