Patient Satisfaction clinical trials at UCSF

3 research studies open to eligible people

Patient satisfaction means how happy patients are with their medical care. UCSF is running a trial to see which sedation method is better for cataract surgery. Another trial is looking at better ways to give prenatal care to pregnant women. UCSF also studies if fewer eye drops are needed after cataract surgery.

  • Cataract Monitored Anesthesia Care (MAC) Feasibility Pilot Study

    open to eligible people ages 65 years and up

    The goal of this pilot clinical trial comparing two different sedation approaches for cataract surgery is to assess patient satisfaction, the quality of recovery, and surgical outcomes as well as to evaluate the overall feasibility and acceptability of the study protocol for the purpose of planning a larger clinical trial. Participants will be asked to respond to several surveys throughout the study on their experience and to assess outcomes of interest.

  • Engaging Mothers & Babies; Reimagining Antenatal Care for Everyone (EMBRACE) Study

    open to eligible females

    This is a randomized comparative effectiveness study of two forms of enhanced prenatal care among 657 Medi-Cal eligible pregnant individuals in Fresno, California. The goal is to see whether group prenatal care with wrap around services versus individual prenatal care supplemented by services covered by the California Department of Public Health Comprehensive Perinatal Services Program (CPSP) results in less depression and anxiety, and more respectful, more person-centered maternity care and lower rates of preterm birth.

  • Dropless Postoperative Regimen After Cataract Surgery in a Vulnerable, County-hospital Population

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The current postoperative cataract surgery eye drop regimen used at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital (ZSFG) is a significant burden for its patient population, contributing to high rates of non-adherence and the development of postoperative complications. The investigators propose to replace this complex regimen with a single administration of intraocular antibiotic and subconjunctival steroid at the time of surgery. This pilot study will obtain the preliminary data required to eventually fully evaluate this innovation in postoperative care in a safety-net population with respect to postoperative outcomes, patient compliance, and patient and caregiver satisfaction.
