Stillbirth and Subsequent Pregnancy Study

The SASP (Stillbirth and Subsequent Pregnancy) Study is part of the SAMMI (Stillbirth and Mental Health in Women) study, which is being run by the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit at Oxford University. The NPEU are collaborating with several hospitals and with Sands to try and improve the way that women who have experienced stillbirth are cared for, both during delivery and afterwards. 

The SASP study aims to understand the thoughts and feelings that women have about subsequent pregnancy following stillbirth, and whether this changes over time. With Sands help they have recruited a number of people to participate in this study, and the recruitment phase of the study is now over. Once results are available we will report them here.
