About this study
Official title: Innovation to the Provision of Maternity Care in Hamilton: An Inter- and Intraprofessional Collaboration
The aim of this pilot project is to determine if there are differences in patient outcomes and healthcare utilization between patients randomly assigned to usual care (a collaborative model of maternity care with co-located healthcare professionals but with referrals to off-site obstetricians) or to a collaborative model of maternity care with co-located healthcare professionals, including obstetricians. It is hypothesized that by creating a seamless interface between obstetrical consultation and ongoing longitudinal maternity care, patient outcomes (birth outcome data), patient satisfaction and healthcare utilization, including number of outpatient visits, ultrasounds, laboratory tests, consultations, etc, will be improved in the intervention group compared with the group receiving usual care. The results could potentially lead to other sites adopting this innovative model of maternity healthcare delivery.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Collaborative modelOther
Patients will be referred (if necessary) to an obstetrician who will be co-located in the Maternity Centre and who will be part of the collaborative model of maternity care.
Usual careOther
At present, if Maternity Centre patients require the specialized services of an obstetrician, the current standard of care is to refer them to obstetricians located offsite with no professional ties to the Maternity Centre

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The aim of this pilot project is to determine if there are differences in patient outcomes and healthcare utilization between patients randomly assigned to usual care (a collaborative model of maternity care with co-located healthcare professionals but with referrals to off-site obstetricians) or to a collaborative model of maternity care with co-located healthcare professionals, including obstetricians. It is hypothesized that by creating a seamless interface between obstetrical consultation and ongoing longitudinal maternity care, patient outcomes (birth outcome data), patient satisfaction and healthcare utilization, including number of outpatient visits, ultrasounds, laboratory tests, consultations, etc, will be improved in the intervention group compared with the group receiving usual care. The results could potentially lead to other sites adopting this innovative model of maternity healthcare delivery.
