ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how healthcare professionals at Angers Maternity Unit understand and deal with congenital birthmarks in newborns. Congenital birthmarks are skin marks that babies are born with, and the researchers believe that some healthcare providers may not have enough knowledge about these birthmarks. This lack of understanding can lead to difficulties in caring for babies who have them. To find out more, the team will collect information from healthcare workers using a questionnaire that asks about their experiences and views on managing these birthmarks.
The trial is looking for participants who work in various roles at the Angers Maternity Unit, such as midwives, pediatricians, and nursing assistants. Unfortunately, students and non-healthcare staff are not eligible to participate. This study is important because it aims to improve how healthcare professionals are trained to handle congenital birthmarks, which could lead to better care for newborns with these conditions in the future.
