Mobile Video Education to Improve Patient Clinician Communication During Prenatal Clinic Visits

The goal of this clinical trial is to test an animated video delivered by text message in patients whose pregnancies are complicated with fetal anomalies. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the video intervention prepare parents to talk to the doctors during prenatal appointments?

Participants will be randomized to receive either the video intervention or links to the clinic's webpages. They will complete an enrollment survey before their appointment and a follow up survey after their appointment.

The researchers will compare the video and webpage groups to see which group reports engaging in more of the identified best-practices of communication.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Pregnant patient scheduled for an appointment at the Children's Wisconsin Fetal Concerns Center for a fetal anomaly.
• Able to speak and understand English (intervention videos are only currently available in English).
• Age of 18 years or older.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pregnant patient's appointment at Children's Wisconsin Fetal Concerns center is not for a fetal anomaly (e.g., screening only, past pregnancy with anomaly only cause of appointment)
• Pregnant patient is considering termination of pregnancy.
