Maternity research

We are dedicated to improving our understanding of health in pregnancy, and to supporting better evidenced-based care.

Research is important as it helps us to:

  • develop new and better treatments
  • be better at preventing problems and making a quick diagnosis
  • give you the best care

There are lots of research projects running in maternity at King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. You may be approached to participate in one or more of these studies during the antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal period.

Our Maternity research leaflet guides you through our current active research projects. If any of the projects are of interest to you or you would like more information, please email the maternity research team at [email protected]
