You are being invited to complete a survey that is part of a research study conducted by the Maternal Quality of Care Indicator (MQI) Working Group. MQI is comprised of independent clinicians and research scientists who have joined together to improve both childbirth safety and the quality of care received by mothers and babies.
Procedures
The goal of this phase of the study is to better understand what matters most to women about their care during pregnancy and birth, who they trust when seeking information and making decisions, and where they go to gather that information. If you agree to participate, the survey should take you no longer than 15 minutes.
Participant Requirements
Participation in this study is limited to adult women who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.
Risks
The risks and discomfort associated with participation in this study are no greater than those ordinarily encountered in daily life or during other online activities. No identifying information will be requested from you.
Benefits
There may be no personal benefit from your participation in the study. However, we hope this study will benefit patients in general by looking at different and new ways to provide people with decision support tools for healthcare services.
Confidentiality
Upon agreeing to participate, you will not be required to provide any identifying information. Although every reasonable effort has been taken to ensure that your information is encrypted, confidentiality during the actual internet communication procedure cannot be guaranteed.
The data and information gathered during this study may be used by the investigator and published and/or disclosed outside of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in publications or other dissemination of the research data.
