Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

Intramuscular carbetocin is as effective as intramuscular syntometrine for the prevention of postpartum haemorrhage

Following signed informed consent, patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery were randomly assigned to one of 3 groups to be given acetaminophen, Indomethacin or a combination of both immediately following induction and then at 6, 12, 18 & 24 hours following surgery. Our primary outcome measure was the amount of blood drained from the mediastinal tubes and chest drains. Secondary outcome measures included conventional blood coagulation indices as well as other measures of clotting as indicated by thromboelastography (TEG). Other secondary outcome measures included consumption of morphine equivalents and pain scores.

This study compares two community-level strategies: selective administration of 800 mcg sublingual misoprostol to women at 350 mL blood loss for secondary prevention of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) with universal use of 600 mcg oral misoprostol at the time of delivery for primary prevention of PPH. The study hypothesizes that at community-level births, secondary prevention for women is non-inferior (based on clinical parameters) to universal prophylaxis provided to women for primary prevention of PPH. This cluster-design non-inferiority trial has the potential to inform service delivery programs on clinical outcomes, program feasibility, cost and acceptability of two different community models of PPH care using misoprostol.

The study evaluates the impact of a new conditional cash transfer (CCT) program (Thayi Bhagya Yojana) to promote child birth in obstetric facilities in the state of Karnataka, India in order to determine its policy value and to guide efforts to improve maternal and infant health outcomes nationally. In addition, the study includes a large randomized evaluation of performance-based incentive payments to providers to improve quality of medical care provided during delivery and actual health improvement in the providers' patient populations and their catchment areas.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment guided also by ICP mean wave amplitude improves outcome compared to international standard care in patients with SAH.

The National Partnership for Maternal Safety (NPMS) developed an obstetric hemorrhage consensus bundle to provide every United States birthing facility consistent, validated practice guidelines. To facilitate implementation of each element of this bundle at the participants large tertiary center, the investigators utilized the Delphi method to identify deficiencies, perceived barriers to implementation, and multidisciplinary consensus on changes with high feasibility and impact on patient care.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of a protocol which does not suspend the new oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban) in front of dental extractions in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.

The study aims are to evaluate the impact of supportive follow-up strategies for a novel twinned training and capacity-sustaining program among frontline health workers (providers) attending facility-based births in remote and district level health facilities in Uganda. The program is designed to improve provider competencies, provider performance and health outcomes among women giving birth and newborns.

The objective of this feasibility study is to demonstrate the safety and feasibility of using an investigational extracorporeal system and catheter to filter hemorrhagic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) post subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) treatment, and reintroduce the CSF via the same catheter.

In this study the investigators will evaluate a new point of care Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer system to assess coagulation rapidly with ease.
