The PREGNANT Coaching Project for Physician Trainees

This study is testing a new 4-month coaching program called the PREGNANT Coaching Program for pregnant or new physician trainees (residents or fellows). This program aims to help reduce burnout, improve well-being, and boost self-confidence. You would either receive this coaching program or be in a control group. The coaching involves one-on-one sessions with a faculty coach and group sessions with a certified coach. Researchers will measure how well the program works by looking at changes in burnout levels through surveys at the start, 4 months, and 7 months into the study. They are looking for about 48 women who are at least 18 years old, fluent in English, and are pregnant or up to 3 months postpartum. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design

Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
