Active clinical trials for "Postpartum Hemorrhage"

The objective of the randomized controlled study is to compare combination of sublingual misoprostol and routine uterotonics versus routine uterotonics alone on PPH in low risk women after vaginal delivery. The hypothesis is that combination of sublingual misoprostol and routine uterotonics is more effective than routine uterotonics alone in reduction of PPH in low risk women after vaginal delivery.

twin pregnant women requesting cesarean section, the effectiveness and safety of temporary uterine packing coupled with topical tranexamic acid as an adjuvant for decreasing blood loss during delivery were compared to placebo.

The study will include 444 pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section in Kasr Al Aini. Following a proper medical history taking, examination will be done, investigations including laboratory tests and obstetric ultrasound will be done. Then, the patients will be divided into 4 groups, receiving Oxytocin only (Group 1), Oxytocin + Tranexamic acid (Group 2), Oxtytocin and Misoprostol (Group 3) or Oxytocin and Carbetocin (Group 4) followed by collection of necessary data.

Observational study on cohort of 10 women undergoing uterine transplantation using deceased donors

The purpose of this study was to evaluate that the tranexamic acid (TXA)Intravenous and oral, is equivalent oxytocin (OXY),intramuscularly, in reducing the blood loss in post partum period (mL) in patients at the end of pregnancy ( 37-42 w ) at low risk of post partum hemorrhage (PPH). The PPH means a blood loss equal to or greater than 500 ml after a vaginal delivery ( the bleeding is defined severe if it exceeds 1000 mL). PPH is called "primary" when blood loss arose within 24 hours after birth. This is a open-trial randomized, longitudinal, controlled that including 486 subjects .

Postpartum haemorrhage is the common cause of maternal death worldwide. The primary purpose of this study is to identify the maternal outcomes after PPH. The highlighted outcome is the anesthetic management including rate of blood transfusion and incidence of patient experiencing massive blood transfusion. The secondary purposes of this study are amount of blood loss, causes of PPH and other outcomes that related to PPH such as the rate of hysterectomy and postoperative outcome eg. congestive heart failure, acute kidney injury and TRALI etc. Additionally, incidence of PPH will be studied. Data collection will be made to identify the cause of PPH, anesthetic techniques that may related to the amount of hemorrhage, medical treatment for PPH and neonatal outcomes. We also aim to obtain the rate of ICU admission and revealed the factors involving the ICU admission in PPH patients underwent cesarean delivery.

The objective of this study is to investigate a technique to monitor blood pressure in women undergoing cesarean delivery with suspected placenta accreta spectrum. To achieve this objective, the investigators plan to conduct a prospective, observational study with the following aims: Specific Aim 1: Compare concordance between the systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) readings from the continuous non-invasive arterial blood pressure (CNAP) and IABP at several discrete points throughout the procedure Specific Aim 2: Determine the feasibility of using CNAP to aid in decision making by examining the parameters of volume responsiveness and arterial elastance at several discrete points throughout the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that the investigators can obtain similar blood pressure monitoring using CNAP as compared to the gold standard IABP in women undergoing cesarean delivery with suspected placenta accreta.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the retention of knowledge and skills after theory+simulation training versus theoretical training alone in postpartum haemorrhage immediately, 3 months and 6 months after training in South Kivu, in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This study will evaluate if the timing of oxytocin administration in cesarean deliveries will affect the amount of maternal blood loss. Half of participants will receive oxytocin after delivery of the fetal anterior shoulder and the other half will receive oxytocin after delivery of the placenta. We hypothesize that administering oxytocin after delivery of the shoulder, will result in less overall maternal blood loss.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility and applicability of a new device 'Tampostat' in the management of primary postpartum hemorrhage and compare the efficacy of 'Tampostat' in terms of arresting primary PPH with that of the conventional condom catheter.
