The main questions it aims to answer are whether this set of interventions will improve trainee wellbeing and decrease medical error.\n\nParticipants will be randomized to intervention and control groups. The intervention group will receive:\n\n1. A Snoo smart sleep bassinet\n2. A Willow wearable breast pump\n3. Access to Maven Clinic for 24/7 on-demand perinatal care\n4. A faculty mentor in their own department\n\nThe control group will receive the standard support currently offered by training programs.\n\nAll participants will wear a Fitbit to track sleep and will take a series of surveys querying pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences; wellbeing; and professional satisfaction.\n\nResearchers will compare intervention and control groups to see if the intervention group has:\n\n1. decreased rates of burnout\n2. increased professional fulfillment\n3. decreased thoughts of leaving the profession\n4. increased perception of organizational and personal value alignment\n5. increased sleep\n6. decreased risk of medical errors\n7. increased personal fulfillment of breastfeeding goals\n8. decreased risk of postpartum depression', 'detailedDescription': "The birth of a child during training is a significant life event that has been associated with a high risk of attrition and career dissatisfaction. Post-graduate training lasts between 3 and 9 years after medical school and overlaps with peak child-bearing years. The difficulties facing new trainee parents have been characterized with stigma, health concerns due to unmitigated work schedules during pregnancy, short parental leaves, and challenges with lactation and childcare contributing to stress and fatigue. Program directors describe marked variability in how childbearing affected residents' quality of work, with many describing returning residents as conflicted and distracted. The increase in family commitments in the setting of existing training demands can lead trainees to develop a perception of work-life incompatibility, fatigue, to change their career trajectory, and to have increased risk of burnout and postpartum depression. The investigators hypothesize that a set of interventions for new trainee mothers, focusing on mentorship, lactation, and sleep can improve trainee wellbeing and decrease the risk of medical errors.\n\nSTUDY PROCEDURES:\n\nThis study is designed as a prospective randomized clinical trial of pregnant trainees at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), Boston Children's Hospital (BCH), and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC).\n\nParticipants will be screened over the phone and consent to participate obtained in person. All participants will take the electronic pre-intervention assessment survey after consent. After completion of the pre-intervention assessment survey, participants will be randomized into either the control arm or the intervention arm and provided a wearable device to monitor sleep (for one week during pregnancy to establish a baseline and for 6 months after delivery).\n\nAfter delivery, all participants will take a set of surveys at 4,12,16,20,24, and 52 weeks postpartum querying obstetric and postpartum experiences; self-reported medical error; fatigue; wellbeing; and professional satisfaction.\n\nThe intervention group will receive:\n\n1. A Snoo smart sleep bassinet\n2. A Willow wearable breast pump\n3. Access to Maven Clinic for 24/7 on-demand perinatal care\n4. A faculty mentor in their own department\n\nThe control group will receive standard parental support currently offered by training programs.\n\nResearchers will compare the following between intervention and control groups:\n\n1. burnout\n2. professional fulfillment\n3. thoughts of leaving the profession\n4. perception of organizational and personal value alignment\n5. sleep and fatigue\n6. self-reported medical errors\n7. personal fulfillment of breastfeeding goals\n8. risk of postpartum depression\n\nThe investigators plan to measure mean scores in burnout as our primary outcome. An effect size of 0.5 standard deviation change in burnout between the control and intervention arm is estimated to be a clinically relevant change. Trainees have mean burnout scores of 3.35 (SD=2.05). 76 subjects in each arm are estimated to be needed, 152 participants total, to detect a statistically significant change in burnout score (by at least 1.025 using the SPFI), with 80% power with a two tailed alpha of 10%, and allowing for 20% attrition of study subjects.\n\nSTATISTICAL ANALYSIS The investigators plan to report descriptive data including frequency, mean (SD) and median (inter-quartile range) for all outcome measures, using chi-squared analyses for categorical variables and t-test for continuous variables.\n\nMass General Brigham (MGB) has more than 200 training programs across its training sites. Of the 27/200+ programs that responded to a brief survey through the Wellbeing Council, 76 trainees (43 men and 33 women) became new parents this past academic year (2020-2021). Human Resources at MGB estimates more than 70 trainees apply for formal parental leave yearly which likely significantly underestimates the true number of new parents as most nonchildbearing parent trainees do not take formal parental leave. Based on this information, the investigators anticipate that the MGB training programs alone will have a sufficient number of trainees to conduct this study.\n\nSTUDY TERMINATION CRITERIA:\n\nThe study will be terminated at the request of the participant for any reason. Otherwise, the study will be terminated at 6 months. Subjects in the control arm who purchase a SNOO bassinet or a wearable breast pump will be requested to notify the study PI and will be categorized as a subgroup and analyzed in a planned sub-group analysis.\n\nMONITORING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE:\n\nTo minimize the risk of loss of anonymity, participants will be assigned a unique study identifier. Access to files linking identifiers with identifying coded data will be limited only to need-to-know study personnel and stored in a Partners Password Protected online storage drive, while survey data will be obtained using Partners REDCap. Data will be accessible only to the PI and CITI-certified research staff. The Research staff will review the database each time new patient data is collected using a Partners password-protected computer and the PI will review the database once a month with details discussed at a monthly research meeting.\n\nIdentifying information (name, email address, phone number, shipping address, and due date) will need to be released to the sponsoring companies to facilitate delivery of the automated bassinet (Happiest Baby Inc), wearable breast pump (Willow Innovations) and access to perinatal on-demand consultation (Maven Clinic). Data transfer will be performed via MGB approved password protected and encrypted mechanisms. Both companies have designated representatives that are HIPAA certified with no association to the study execution or analysis. Data access by the company representatives will require multi-factor identification for the single user who will be allowed access. The transferred information will be used to order study related equipment for participants. The data will be deleted from the secure electronic location at the conclusion of the study.\n\nSleep tracking data is housed in secure Azure (Microsoft) servers. Fitabase uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for all authentication (logins), billing, and administration of the site. The user's browser establishes the authenticity by requesting an SSL certificate that verifies the identity of Fitabase. Once that SSL certificate is recognized, a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is established for security, encrypting data transmitted between browser and web server.\n\nParticipants will be asked in person or online to authorize use of Fitabase to access their wearable device data and make it available for download for analysis. Participants will be informed that research staff will be able to access, view, and download deidentified data through the Fitabase platform. Data collected will relate to sleep length, movement, and quality. There are two instances when the PI will revoke access to data associated with participants in this study. First, if a participant chooses to withdraw from the study, the PI will remove the participant from the study platform (Fitabase) and data will be removed from the study. Second, 90 days after the completion of data collection Fitabase will remove the project from their data management system, disassociate the data from the project, and begin remove access to the data by deleting it from its servers and backup systems.\n\nThe PI will be responsible for determining whether the research should be altered or stopped. Throughout the duration of the study, the PI will perform ongoing evaluation of subject safety data to identify adverse events and trends as soon as possible. Any unanticipated adverse events involving risk to human subjects will be reviewed by the Principal Investigator and will be quickly reported to the Human Research Committee within the required time frame and to all participating investigators by The PI according to the Partners Human Research Committee guidelines."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Currently pregnant\n* Part of a residency or fellowship training program at MGH, BWH, BCH, or BIDMC during pregnancy and for 6 months postpartum\n* Clinically active and will remain clinically active until 6 months postpartum\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* significant cardiopulmonary, gastrointestinal, or neurologic comorbidities in participant or her fetus\n* on research elective or dedicated research time from time of enrollment until 6 months postpartum.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06014892', 'briefTitle': 'The 4th Trimester Initiative: The Impact of Parental Support on Pregnant Trainee Wellbeing', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Massachusetts General Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'The 4th Trimester Initiative: The Impact of Parental Support on Pregnant Trainee Wellbeing', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2022P001157'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intervention', 'description': 'The intervention group will receive:\n\n1.
