Endometritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Reduction of Endometritis After Cesarean Section With the Routine Use of Methergine
Endomyometritis is an "infection in the uterus". It can occur in up to 1 out of 5 women
having unplanned cesarean deliveries. Antibiotics are routinely given at the time of
Cesarean delivery, but the infection in the uterus can still occur. When endomyometritis
occurs it can prolong the woman's stay in the hospital after birth, slow down her recovery
time at home, and increase medical costs. Methergine is a medication that is routinely used
to stop uterine hemorrhage (excessive bleeding from the uterus) that sometimes happens after
delivery. Methergine works by contracting (tightening) the uterus. These contractions also
help the uterus to expel or remove parts of the placenta that increase the chance of
developing a uterine infection.
This research study is being done to learn if routine use of Methergine can lower the
chances of developing a uterine infection after cesarean delivery. Half of the women in this
study will receive Methergine for a few days during their hospitalization after cesarean
delivery. The other half of the women will not routinely receive Methergine.
