NICHD Maternal Fetal Medicine Units Network

描述(由申请人提供)：本申请加入NICHD母胎医学网络是俄勒冈健康与科学大学(OHSU)和凯撒永久俄勒冈/华盛顿州(KPNW)地区的联合提案。这是OHSU和KPNW在孕产妇胎儿医学方面长期合作的结果，并将大学和社区的研究能力结合在一起，这将增加招生的多样性。联合分娩(2003年为4091例，2004年为4043例)主要集中在两个地点：俄亥俄州立大学多恩贝赫儿童医院的围产期中心和圣文森特医院的KPNW围产期中心。这两个中心都有选择地为遗传学、早孕咨询、高分辨率超声检查、高危产科和胎儿超声心动图提供咨询服务，工作人员都是母婴医学专家。OHSU和KPNW都有独立和共同进行受人尊敬的临床研究的悠久历史。这一合作建立在共享实验室服务和孕妇胎儿医学覆盖范围、妇产科综合住院医师以及KPNW健康研究中心和俄勒冈州循证实践中心的研究优势的基础上。健康研究中心(KPNW)和妇女健康研究股(OHSU)在临床试验和研究人员方面拥有丰富的经验，以促进患者参加临床研究。将患者招募集中在两个地点，由致力于这一提议的产妇胎儿医学专家工作，将加强研究人员的登记和参与，并最大限度地提高获得的数据的质量。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application to join the NICHD Maternal Fetal Medicine Units Network is a combined proposal from the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) and Kaiser Permanente Oregon/Washington (KPNW) region. It is the result of a long-standing collaboration between OHSU and KPNW in maternal fetal medicine and brings together university and community research capabilities, which will increase diversity in enrollment. The combined deliveries (4091 in 2003 and 4043 in 2004) concentrate high risk patients in principally two sites: the Perinatal Center at Doernbecher Children's hospital at OHSU and the KPNW Perinatal Center at St. Vincent's Hospital. Both centers serve to selectively funnel consultations for genetics, preconception counseling, high resolution ultrasonography, high risk obstetrics and fetal echocardiography and are staffed by Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialists. Both OHSU and KPNW have a long history of conducting respected clinical research independently and together. This collaboration is based upon shared laboratory services and maternal fetal medicine coverage, an integrated residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology, and the combined strengths in research of the KPNW Center for Health Research and the Oregon Evidence-based Practice Center. The Center for Health Research (KPNW) and the Women's Health Research Unit (OHSU) have extensive experience in clinical trials and the research staff to facilitate the enrollment of patients in clinical studies. Focusing patient recruitment in two sites staffed by maternal fetal medicine specialists committed to this proposal will enhance enrollment and participation by research staff as well as maximize the quality of data obtained.
