Tokyo, April 20 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061164) titled 'Evaluation of an ICT-based provider-to-provider remote clinical support system for labor analgesia' on April 20.

Study Type: Observational

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Kansai Medical University

Condition: Condition - None Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of implementing a healthcare provider-to-provider remote clinical support system using telecommunication technologies for labor analgesia conducted during weekday off-hours, in which obstetric anesthesiologists provide support for labor analgesia management from outside the hospital. The study population includes healthcare professionals and patients involved in labor analgesia management under the remote support system during off-hours. The primary outcomes are the success rate of establishing remote support and the perceived usefulness of remote support as assessed by questionnaire surveys administered to healthcare professionals. Through this study, we aim to obtain insights that may contribute to reducing the workload burden of anesthesiologists during off-hours and improving the efficiency of labor analgesia management systems. Basic objectives2 - Safety,Efficacy

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 18 years-old = Gender - Male and Female Key inclusion criteria - Healthcare professionals (midwives, anesthesiologists, and obstetricians) involved in cases of labor analgesia management conducted under the remote support system during weekday off-hours.
