Active clinical trials for "Postpartum Hemorrhage"

306 patients will be divided randomly in to 2 GROUPS: control group: 153 patients will receive Oxytocin 10 IU I.V shot administered at the time of delivery of the anterior shoulder of the baby for both groups in prevention of postpartum haemorrhage,followed by active management of the third stage of labor by administration of oxytocin 5 IU units IM and waiting for signs of placental separation then controlled cord traction (CCT) to the umbilical cord while applying simultaneous counter-pressure to the uterus, through the abdomen(Brandt Andrews maneuver) study group:156 patients received Oxytocin 10 IU I.V shot at the time of delivery of the of the anterior shoulder of the baby according to the WHO recommendation .Then oxytocin is stopped and cervical traction (Amr maneuver )is applied. In the maneuver,sustained traction downward and posteriorly was applied to anterior and posterior lips of the cervix using ovum forceps for approximately 90 seconds. The traction should be adequate to allow the cervix to reach the vaginal introitus. Meanwhile (CCT ) is avoided and watchful waiting for signs of placental separartion till 90 seconds end. Massage is not employed but the fundus is frequently palpaple to insure it doesnot become atonic and filled with blood from placenta separation. In cases whom placental separation did not occur within the 90 seconds, we removed the ovum forceps and waited for 30 min for the placental separation .

"¡Que Vivan las Madres!: Venga a tener su parto al CAP" (QVLM) is a guatemalan quasi-experimental study that has been performed from January 2014 to January 2017 by the Epidemiological Research Center in Sexual and Reproductive Health (CIESAR) in Guatemala in coordination with PRONTO International and University of San Francisco, California. This project has been financed by Grands Challenges Canada' "Save Lives at Birth, A Grand Challenge for Development" partnership that includes USAID, Norwegian ministry of foreign affairs, Bill&Melinda Gates foundation, UKaid. This project has applied a stepped wedge design (SWD) over 6 zones or clusters. Each one of the zones contains from 4 to 6 communities, each one with the presence of one second level health facility (known in Spanish as CAP, Centro de Atención Permanente). These health centers are the next level in attention after home, traditional and empirical attention. Communities around the selected health centers are mostly rural and have the worst maternal health indicators in the country. These health centers are expected to have enough equipment and personnel to attend the deliveries that occur in their communities. This study was performed in Huehuetenango and Alta Verapaz districts in north Guatemala. Each one with 3 zones for a total of 6 zones. The study follows a Stepped Wedge Design, in which all 6 zones are eventually intervened, but at different regular periods of time (each period is 4 months long). This project applies a package of 3 simultaneous interventions in each zone with the purpose of increasing institutional deliveries and improving deliveries attention in public health centers. This intervention plan has been implemented in a pilot study reported in (Kestler et. al, 2013).

A comparison of reported estimated blood loss with quantified blood loss in all patients whose medical records indicate Triton was used during their vaginal delivery.

the investigators aim to compare bimanual uterine compression immediately after delivery of the placenta for 5 minutes versus no intervention for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage in Women at high risk for primary atonic postpartum hemorrhage. The primary outcome is postpartum haemorrhage (blood loss of ≥ 500 ml) while the Secondary outcomes include use of additional uterotonics and need for blood transfusion.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the frequencey and the determinants of postpartum major complications (hemorrhage and thrombosis) up to 3 months after delivery in the maternity hospitals of Finistère (Bretagne - France)

This is a prospective observational study among women at high-risk of postpartum hemorrhage, in their third trimester who are admitted to Labor &Delivery in spontaneous labor, for induction of labor, or for scheduled cesarean section.

This non-interventional study will compare the clinical outcomes in women with an event of severe postpartum haemorrhage treated with NovoSeven® to clinical outcomes in women with an event of severe postpartum haemorrhage not treated with NovoSeven®. The study will be a single centre retrospective cohort study of women with an event of severe postpartum haemorrhage, defined as 1.5 L of blood loss within 24 hours of delivery, in the period of 2005-2016.

Today, few data are available on the patient's fertility following intrauterine tamponade balloon (BTIU) used for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal delivery (AVB). Several studies have concluded that there are no fertility disorders after conservative surgical treatment or embolization. BTIU is an essential treatment in the management of PPH. The aim was to evaluate post-BTIU fertility and the appearance of gynecological symptoms. This is a bicentric retrospective study (Valenciennes, Lille, France), between 2012 and 2017. The data will be collected by telephone interview on fertility and various gynecological functional symptoms.

The participants will be randomized into an oxytocin plus uterine massage group and an oxytocin-only group in the third stage of the labor. Women allocated to the uterine massage group will be provided with trans-abdominal uterine massage starting promptly after delivery of the fetus until delivery of the placenta. The amount of postpartum hemorrhage and placental delivery time will be recorded and compared between the groups.

To assess the impact and to identify the main risk factors for psychological and cardiac morbidity (post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression) in case of postpartum hemorrhage
