  • Pregnant women’s experiences andperceptions of participating in theEVERREST Prospective Study; a qualitativeStudy
    2019
    Co-Authors: M.e. Harvey, A.l. David, J. Dyer, R. Spencer
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: The EVERREST Prospective Study is a multicentre observational cohort Study of pregnancies affected by severe early-onset fetal growth restriction. The Study recruits women with singleton pregnancies where the estimated fetal weight is less than the 3rd centile and below 600 g, between 20 + 0 and 26 + 6 weeks of pregnancy, in the absence of a known chromosomal, structural or infective cause. Method: The reported Study was retrospective descriptive qualitative interview Study of women who had participated in the EVERREST Prospective Study. The aim of this Study was to explore the experiences and perceptions of pregnant women taking part in research during a pregnancy affected by severe early-onset fetal growth restriction. Audio-recorded semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of 12 women, at least 1 year after delivery of their baby. Two of these pregnancies had ended in stillbirth and one in neonatal death, reflecting the outcomes seen in the EVERREST Prospective Study. Participants gave informed consent, were 16 years or older and were interviewed in English. A topic guide was used to ensure a consistent approach. Questions focused on pregnancy experiences, involvement with the EVERREST Study and potential involvement in future research. Recordings were transcribed verbatim for thematic analysis using NVivo10. Results: Four broad themes were identified; ‘before joining the EVERREST Prospective Study’, ‘participating in research’, ‘information and support’ and ‘looking back and looking forwards’. Each broad theme incorporated several subthemes. All participants recalled their reaction to being told their baby was smaller than expected. The way this news was given had a lasting impact. A range of benefits of participation in the EVERREST Prospective Study were described and the participants were positive about the way it was conducted. As a consequence, they were receptive to participating in future research. However, the findings suggest that research teams should be sensitive when approaching families at a difficult time or when they are already participating in other research. Conclusions: This Study highlights the willingness of pregnant women to participate in research and identifies strategies for researchers to engage participants.

    The EVERREST Prospective Study is a multicentre observational cohort Study of pregnancies affected by severe early-onset fetal growth restriction. The Study recruits women with singleton pregnancies where the estimated fetal weight is less than the 3rd centile and below 600 g, between 20 + 0 and 26 + 6 weeks of pregnancy, in the absence of a known chromosomal, structural or infective cause.
