Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Women hospitalized for preterm labor require clear information about prematurity. This study assessed whether or not specific written information about prematurity delivered at admission to the unit combined with an oral explanation from a pediatrician would decrease women's anxiety compared to an oral explanation alone. This was a prospective, single-center observational study.Women were included in the high-risk pregnancies department and distributed into two groups: receiving ''only oral'' information for a prenatal clinical consultation with a senior pediatrician or receiving ''combined'' oral information + a booklet about prematurity given to the women at admission. The primary endpoint was the change in anxiety-state (before and after the information procedure) evaluated by the State Trait Anxiety Inventory-Y (STAI-Y).
