This study involves partnering with Healthy Start Programs in the SC Pee Dee region to evaluate Listening to Women (LTW), a text message based mental health and substance use screening and referral to treatment program, compared to usual care (Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT)), among pregnant and postpartum women. The study also involves doing interviews and focus groups (group discussions) with women in the Healthy Start programs, community health workers (CHWs), and key local and state stakeholders.

This is a research study to compare a text message based mental health and substance use screening and referral to treatment program, called Listening to Women (LTW), to standard of care mental health and substance use screening. Pregnant and postpartum women ages 18-41 who are receiving prenatal care within the MUSC Health system or who delivered within the MUSC Health System are invited to participate.

The objective of this study is to obtain viable mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from umbilical cords in uncomplicated planned cesarean deliveries. Potential donors will be screened prior to donation of umbilical cords to confirm no infectious disease, viruses and/or diseases. The overall goal is to obtain MSCs from healthy donors for eventual transfusion into patients for potential treatment of diseases, such as chronic pancreatitis, systemic sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, COVID 19, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and other diseases in studies approved by the IRB. We also want to store the cells as repository for other potential therapy.

The current study aims to adapt and test a brief computer-assisted intervention for pregnant women with elevated posttraumatic stress symptoms. Twenty pregnant women in their first trimester will be invited to participate in the study if they endorse elevated posttraumatic stress symptoms. Along with self-report measures, hormones will be measured at baseline, one month post-intervention, three months post-intervention, and post-delivery. In addition, women will receive a psychoeducation + skills intervention during their first trimester and women will be offered a "booster session" intervention following delivery to enhance utilization of skills during a critical period for maternal mental and physical health outcomes.

The primary purpose of this study is to compare extended-release buprenorphine (CAM2038) to buprenorphine placed under the tongue (sublingual) in pregnant women with opioid use disorder to see if CAM2038 is as effective as sublingual buprenorphine. We are looking to recruit pregnant women who are between 18-41 years old; are between 6-30 weeks pregnant and are not planning to terminate the pregnancy; have opioid use disorder, and are enrolled or are planning to enroll in outpatient buprenorphine treatment at The Medical University of South Carolina. Participation in the study would last between 13 and 21 months total with up to between about 63-102 total visits, including weekly medication check visits and research visits.

Staff at sites who participate in the MUSC Women's Reproductive Behavioral Telehealth (WRBT) Program will be asked to participate in individual interviews or focus groups (group discussions) about their experience with the telemedicine program and fill out surveys. Patients in the WRBT Program will be asked to fill out surveys about their telemedicine experience.

This purpose of this research study is to collect feedback from participants about a web-based program for opioid misuse and opioid use disorder, as well as a text message based mental health and substance use screening and treatment program for pregnant and postpartum women, called Listening to Women (LTW). Participants will be asked to review web-based content and take part in focus groups (group discussions) and individual interviews to provide feedback on the content. The study team is looking for pregnant women or women who have been pregnant in the past 2 years of any race who misuse opioids or have opioid use disorder, obstetric providers who treat pregnant women with opioid misuse and opioid use disorder and women who self-identify as Black that has been pregnant or postpartum in the past 2 years and struggled with a substance use disorder or mental health disorder during this time OR did NOT struggle with a substance use disorder or mental health disorder during this time to participate in this study.

Early intervention for infants and toddlers with or at-risk for autism spectrum disorder can promote developmental skills and improve lifelong outcomes. Yet, many children with ASD are not diagnosed until after age 3. In order to improve early detection of ASD, we are investigating very early predictors of social communication challenges in infants as young as 1 week to 6 months of age.

This research study examines how the development of attention and motor skills in the first year of life is associated with the emergence of social and communication skills in three groups of infants: infants who are first born or who have a sibling with no developmental delays, infants who have an older sibling diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, and infants who were born preterm.

This study will evaluate a remote patient monitoring solution for low-risk pregnancies to assess whether or not it produces equivalent care with regards to clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction at a lower cost to the healthcare system and its participants. Furthermore, we will measure the ability of participants to collect and record the necessary data.

The purpose of this study is to look at the how the use of products that contain a certain chemical compound Docusate, commonly referred to as DOSS, may have on pregnant women and their babies. DOSS is used in many commercially available products, such as pesticides, personal care products, and laxatives. This study will focus on DOSS and the use of Colace which is a commonly prescribed stool softener used in pregnancy. This study will involve pregnant women who are being admitted into MUSC's Labor and Delivery unit.
