This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), CFDA 93.865 Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research, seeks to establish an innovative, multi-modal screening tool for the early detection of childbirth-related post-traumatic stress disorder (CB-PTSD) in new mothers. The $2,416,587 grant, awarded on September 8, 2025, will fund a prospective, longitudinal study to assess women with complicated, potentially traumatic deliveries. The study will collect oral unstructured short childbirth narratives and measure psychophysiological responses during recollection of the childbirth trauma, with the goal of developing an early screening tool to identify women at risk for this debilitating and underdiagnosed condition. The project will be carried out by the awardee, The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital, a renowned academic medical center.
