NCT ID:
NCT07309757
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to develop a pilot screening protocol, comparing cardiac point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), electrocardiogram (EKG), serum biomarkers (N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high sensitivity troponin (hsTn)) with formal transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) in pregnant women with methamphetamine use.
Detailed Description:
This is a pilot study that examines previously undiagnosed cardiac pathology utilizing transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) in pregnant women with chronic methamphetamine use and assesses possible screening modalities (cardiac point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), serum biomarkers, electrocardiogram (EKG)) in identifying underlying disease in this population. As this is a prospective observational study, we will assess pregnancy-related complications and care connections in the pilot tertiary academic setting.
