Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants Who Underwent a Trial of Labor After Cesarean (TOLAC) Delivery | 0-8 weeks after delivery | Number of participants who underwent a trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) delivery, as noted in the medical record. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants Who Underwent Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) | 0 to 8 weeks after delivery | Number of participants who underwent vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC), as noted in the medical record. |
| Secondary | Knowledge About TOLAC and ERCD | Approx 34-37 weeks gestation | 8-item knowledge scale, administered during telephone interview. Scores ranged from 0 to 8 with higher scored indicating greater knowledge. |
| Secondary | Decisional Conflict | Approx 34-37 weeks gestation | 16-item Decisional Conflict Scale with 5 response categories, administered during telephone interview. Scoring: total scale-0 (no decisional conflict) to 100 (extreme decisional conflict) lower values indicate lower decisional conflict. |
| Secondary | Shared Decision Making | Approx 34-37 weeks gestation | 9-item Shared Decision Making Scale, administered during telephone interview. Shared decision-making was measured using the 9-item Shared Decision Making Questionnaire (SDM-Q-9), a psychometrically evaluated tool. The core instrument consists of nine statements, which can be rated on a six-point scale from "completely disagree" (0) to "completely agree" (5). The Shared Decision Score can range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more shared decision-making. |
| Secondary | Decision Self-Efficacy | Approx 34-37 weeks gestation | 11-item Decisional Self-Efficacy Scale, administered during telephone interview. The total score is calculated by summing the 11 items, dividing by 11 and multiplying by 25. Scores range from 0 (not confident) to 100 (extremely confident). |
| Secondary | Decision Satisfaction | Approx 34-37 weeks gestation | 6-item Satisfaction with Decision Scale, administered during telephone interview. Satisfaction With Decision Scale scores range from 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating more satisfaction. |
| Secondary | Maternal Major Morbidity | Collected 0 to 8 weeks after delivery. | Defined as any of: uterine rupture, hysterectomy, surgical injury (bowel, bladder/ureter, or other), maternal death, as noted in the medical record for her delivery. |
| Secondary | Maternal Minor Morbidity | Collected 0 to 8 weeks after delivery. | Defined as any of: blood transfusion, postpartum febrile morbidity (endometritis, cellulitis, urinary tract infection, or other infection), as noted in the medical record for her delivery. |
| Secondary | 3rd or 4th Degree Lacerations | Collected 0 to 8 weeks after delivery. | 3rd or 4th degree lacerations, as noted in the medical record for her delivery. |
