Post Partum Hemorrhage• Patients will be divided into two groups 100 patients will receive routine ecbolics (for example oxytocin) after delivery of baby The 100 patients will receive routine ecbolics (for example oxytocin) after delivery of baby plus 400 microgram misoprostol rectally with catheterization and another 400 microgram rectally after closure of abdomen Then we will compare between two groups regarding Intaoperative blood loss Risk of Postpartum hemorraghe in the first 24 hrs HB pre and postoperative for all patients Intraoperative blood loss will be estimated by the number and weight of soaked towels and amount of blood in suction unit
Effect of Delayed vs Immediate Umbilical Cord Clamping on Maternal Blood Loss in Term Spontaneous...
Post Partum HemorrhagePolicies for timing of cord clamping vary, with early cord clamping generally carried out in the first 60 seconds aLer birth, whereas latercord clamping usually involves clamping the umbilical cord greater than one minute after the birth or when cord pulsation has ceased

The Effect of Tranexamic Acid on Postpartum Hemorrhage During and After Cesarean Delivery
HemorrhageIntravenous Tranexamic acid is used to reduce the hemorrhage during and after cesarean delivery in a double blind randomized placebo controlled trial.

Postpartum HemorrhageThe purpose of this study is to compare trans-abdominal uterine massage to sustained uterine compression after vaginal delivery with respect to blood loss and maternal pain. It is a randomized controlled trial that will be conducted at the American University of Beirut Medical Center - Delivery Suite.
Ghana: The Barriers and Facilitators of Scaling up the Ellavi UBT for Postpartum Hemorrhage
Postpartum HemorrhageThe purpose of this implementation science study is to generate evidence that informs the successful uptake and adoption of the Ellavi UBT within Ghana's PPH management programs. The investigators aim to improve the likelihood that the Ellavi UBT will be integrated into the health care system by obtaining critical feedback from stakeholders and health care providers on the barriers and facilitators towards its successful adoption and roll out. The research will be done in three purposively selected facilities near Accra Ghana: Tema General Hospital, Ridge Hospital, and Kasoa Polyclinic. This study uses a nonexperimental design to collect data on implementation (e.g. # staff trained, usability, user confidence, acceptability, feasibility). The study team will train all obstetric healthcare staff (i.e. obstetricians, midwives, medical officers, clinical officers) involved in PPH management at the 3 participating healthcare facilities on the Ellavi UBT. The investigators will gather feedback from the obstetric healthcare workers (post-training and post-PPH) to understand the barriers to and facilitators of use in order to evaluate acceptability and feasibility among facilities providing different levels of care (level 4, level 5 (county), level 6 (tertiary)). This process will help to generate training and facility level recommendations for improved uptake and integration into the local maternal care package. Case report forms and semi-quantitative surveys will be completed by obstetrical care providers to evaluate the primary outcomes of acceptability and feasibility by measuring: context of use, accuracy of use, perceptions of the device, user confidence, acceptability, usability, facilitators of use, barriers to use, use-patterns, and insights into training effectiveness. The secondary outcomes will include financial data to determine the cost of introducing the Ellavi UBT into the Kenyan PPH management protocols and the health system. The study will not involve the storage of biological samples. There is not a direct benefit of the study to the individual participants. All study participants will sign consent forms.
Postpartum Uterotonic Administration
Postpartum BleedingThe investigators are planning to determine the effect of the timing of oxytocin administration on the amount of blood loss, necessity for additional medical or surgical interventions.
Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage With TXA
Postpartum HemorrhageHemorrhage remains the leading cause of maternal death worldwide. Tranexamic acid has been shown to reduce rates of hemorrhage when given prophylactically prior to cesarean delivery. It has also been shown to be an effective treatment in response to hemorrhage after a vaginal delivery. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of TXA on hemorrhage rates when given prophylactically prior to all deliveries.
Prevalence of Psychological Disorders After Immediate Postpartum Hemorrhage
Postpartum HemorrhagePostpartum Women3 moreThe objective of this cross-sectional study is to assess the prevalence of depression at 2 months, 6 months, and 1 year postpartum in women who had an immediate postpartum hemorrhage (immediate PPH defined as blood loss ≥ 500 mL within 24 hours of delivery). The potential serious consequences of PPH may lead to a greater number of psychological disorders in these women than in women without PPH.
