Filter by:Cesarean section is the most common performed major surgical interventions among women all over the world.Cesarean section has many serious complications, including primary postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Postpartum hemorrhage is one of the most serious causes of maternal mortality and morbidity, especially in developing countries, and the number of maternal deaths due to postpartum hemorrhage is estimated to exceed 100,000 maternal deaths each year. The incidence of CS is increasing and the average blood loss during CS (1000 mL) is double the amount lost during vaginal delivery (500 mL) . The most successful technique for decreasing PPH is active management of the third stage of labor (AMTSL), requires prophylactic utero-tonic drugs as oxytocin, ergometrine malate and combinations of them , They must be administered by injection. Misoprostol is synthetic prostaglandin (PGE1 analogue), with utero-tonic properties, has been proposed as an alternative strategy for prevention of PPH in settings where oxytocin use is not handy. It has important advantages over oxytocin, including the potential for oral administration and a long shelf life at room temperature.Misoprostol is affordable and widely available, can be easily administered via multiple routes, and has a good safety profile if properly administered and monitored, all of which makes it an alternative treatment option of PPH in developing countries. Investigators were comparing the effect of preoperative and post-operative rectally administrated misoprostol on operative blood loss at cesarean section. Misoprostol has an important effect in terms of decreased postoperative morbidity and a decrease in risks associated with blood transfusions.
This study was planned to determine the effect of simulation-based postpartum hemorrhage management on the application skills, satisfaction, self-confidence and self-efficacy-competences of Health Sciences University Hamidiye Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department 3rd year students. The research, which was planned in a randomized controlled experimental design, will be conducted with Istanbul Health Sciences University Hamidiye Health Sciences Faculty 3rd year midwifery (N:82) students. Students participating in the study will be divided into intervention (n:41) and control (n:41) groups according to the computer-assisted simple random sampling technique. Before the application, both groups will be given 2 hours of theoretical information on the evaluation and management of postpartum hemorrhage. 41 students assigned to the intervention group will be given a high-fidelity simulator, and 41 students assigned to the control group will be given practical training accompanied by an adult standard patient care model. "Descriptive Information Form", "Evaluation of Simulation-Based Learning Scale", "Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale", "Self-Efficacy Scale" and "Early Postpartum Hemorrhage Management Skill Evaluation Form" will be applied to the students participating in the research.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of an expert opinion during the management of patients with severe bleeding on oral anticoagulants. The main question it aims to answer is : • Does an expert help of decision during the management of patients with severe bleeding is superior to classic management ? The centers will be randomized in one of the two groups : control group and interventional group. Patients will be followed for 3 months. At their inclusion they will be managed in conformity of the randomisation of their center. They will be followed at hour 0 + 6 , H0+24 and at the end of hospitalization. After 3 months, they will be called to assess the occurrence of thrombotic events ou hemorrhage complications. Researchers will compare the classic management versus the management with an expert opinion to see if the expert opinion is superior to classic management.
More than 80% of patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) are hospitalized after their visit to the emergency department (ED). However, some of these hospitalizations do not seem justified. Several clinical scores have been developed to classify patients according to their risk of death or need for therapeutic intervention. The aims of this study are: 1. to describe the characteristics of patients hospitalized for UGIB after their visit to the ED 2. to assess the predictive factors of hospital intervention or death 3. to assess the accuracy of existing prognostic scores to classify patients according their risk of death or need for therapeutic intervention (external validation) and to identify low-risk patients not requiring intervention. 4. Depending on the results, a new score could be derived to identify patients at low risk for intervention or death.
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) can cause a severe headache (HA) that is famously treatment-resistant. Current pain regimens are too reliant on opioids, which results in long-term opioid dependence and can obfuscate the neurological examination, which is critical to detect vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia. This study will gather the initial evidence of whether the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) regional anesthesia nerve block can treat aSAH-related HA and reduce opioid consumption in patients with aSAH.
Carbetocin is an oxytocin receptor agonist that selectively binds to receptors in the smooth muscle of the uterus, stimulates rhythmic contractions of the uterus, increases the frequency of existing contractions, and raises the tone of the uterine musculature. Carbetocin is approved in >100 countries for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony in women following cesarean or vaginal delivery. Per regulatory requirements, the current trial will evaluate the effects of high clinical exposure of carbetocin on the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) as measured by ECG in healthy men and women.
Channel Medsystems, Inc., the manufacturer of the Cerene® Cryotherapy Device (Cerene), is initiating a prospective, observational registry, the Progress registry, to gather data during real world utilization of the Cerene® Cryotherapy Device (Cerene). The primary objective of this registry is to bridge the gap between clinical results and outcomes achieved and reported during the pivotal study of Cerene and those obtained during its real-world use.
Disorders of consciousness (DOC) refers to the persistent loss of consciousness after 28 days in patients with brain injury caused by trauma, stroke, or hypoxia. It includes coma, vegetative state, and minimally conscious state. At present, there is no effective treatment for DOC. Only one RCT study of amantadine has proved that it may be effective for the treatment of DOC. In recent years, more evidence has shown that neuromodulation technology is beneficial to the recovery of DOC. Cervical spinal cord stimulation surgery is a new treatment method for patients with DOC. Electrodes are implanted in the high cervical spinal cord C2-C5. By adjusting different electrical stimulation parameters, it has a wake-promoting effect. In this study, patients were selected into the spinal cord stimulation group and the conventional treatment group according to the wishes of their families. The patients in the spinal cord stimulation group were given 21 days of cervical spinal cord stimulation treatment on the basis of conventional brain rehabilitation. Patients were followed up routinely and completed designated examinations at 12 months to determine the safety and efficacy of cervical spinal cord stimulation therapy.
This pilot study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of rTMS in the treatment of movement disorders in patients with ICH.
Tranexamic acid is a medication used to treat or prevent excessive blood loss during surgery. Previous studies have shown tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces blood loss and post-operative blood transfusion rate without significant complications. In addition, many meta-analyses have confirmed these results. This study also aims to determine how safe and effective tranexamic acid treatment is for different patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty.
