About this study
Official title: Monitoring Pregnant Women Using REST Mobile Application (Risk Identification, Evaluation Counseling, Systematic Monitoring, Troubleshooting)
The goal of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to compare the health condition of pregnant women through pregnancy monitoring in the implementation of pregnancy class. The main question it aims to answer are:
How is the condition of the mother and baby after pregnancy monitoring using the REST mobile application (Risk identification, Evaluation counseling, Systematic monitoring, Trobleshooting)
Read more
Participants will be monitored for the condition of their pregnancy from 20 weeks of pregnancy until delivery. Participants will attend in the pregnancy class as many as 3 meetings and a pregnancy check-up by the midwife.
Researchers will compare intervention group to see if normal delivery methods, birth weight of the baby (>2500), antenatal care visits (>6 times), and prevention of pregnancy complications were better than the control group.
Read the detailed description
The research will involve pregnant women and midwives. The midwife will conduct a pregnancy check-up which includes 10 pregnancy checks (height and weight, blood pressure, upper arm circumference, uterine fundus height, Tetanus immunization, Fe tablets, fetal presentation and fetal heart rate, counseling, laboratory tests, case handling). The examination is carried out every class meeting of pregnant women. The results of the examination will be inputted into the mobile application. Pregnant women will fill in the mobile application if the mother does antenatal care at a health facility. This activity will last until the mother's delivery.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
mobile application REST (Risk identification, Evaluation counseling, Systematic monitoring, Troubleshooting)Device
The mobile application will be installed on the mobile phone. The application is used to monitor pregnant women. Users of the application are midwives and pregnant women. The application contains documentation of the health condition of pregnant women.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention Group | Experimental | Pregnant women and midwives will use the REST (Risk identification, Evaluation counseling, Systematic monitoring, Troubleshooting) mobile application to monitor the condition of maternal pregnancy. Mothers and midwives will implementation 3 times of pregnancy class until mothers give birth Receives: Device: mobile application REST (Risk identification, Evaluation counseling, Systematic monitoring, Troubleshooting) |
| Control Group | No intervention | Pregnant women and midwives will conduct pregnancy monitoring as usual. The pregnancy class will be implemented in accordance with government program standards. Mothers will take pregnancy class 3 times until the mother gives birth |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Reduced incidence of pregnancy complications in the mother
Pregnancy complications are measured using a mobile application by looking at the history of the mother's health condition. Possible complications such as pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, hypertension in pregnancy, and anemia
Measured: 20 weeks gestational age until delivery
Increased childbirth by normal methods
The delivery method can be seen using the mobile application in the labor report section. Delivery will be reported by the midwife regarding the method used for childbirth including the results of filling out the partograph
Measured: 20 weeks gestational age until delivery
Reduced incidence of low birth weight babies
The baby's birth weight is measured using baby scales and it is expected that the baby's birth weight is more than 2500 grams
Measured: 20 weeks gestational age until delivery
Antenatal care for pregnant women more than 6 visits
Antenatal care by mothers can be measured by the number of visits to health facilities for pregnancy check-ups. Each visit will be recorded on the mobile application starting from the first visit
Measured: During pregnancy
