ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial, called "Pulse and Constitution of Pregnant Women," is studying the differences in pulse waves between pregnant and non-pregnant women. Researchers will use a portable device, known as an autonomic nervous system (ANS) Watch, connected to a laptop to monitor and record the pulse of participants. The trial aims to recruit 100 pregnant women and 100 non-pregnant women aged between 20 and 45 years, as long as they have not taken certain hormonal medications in the past six months.
To be eligible for this study, participants should not have any serious health conditions like heart, liver, kidney, or thyroid diseases, and they should not be currently using medications for chronic illnesses. Additionally, individuals who smoke, abuse drugs or alcohol, or have certain acute health issues will not be able to participate. If you join the trial, you can expect to wear the ANS Watch and have your pulse monitored in a comfortable setting. This research could help improve our understanding of how pregnancy affects the body’s pulse, which might be important for future healthcare.
