Filter by:Postpartum haemorrhage keeps to be the leading cause of maternal mortality in middle and low-income countries, including Iraq. Much advancement had been made in the field of treatment for postpartum haemorrhage but no much progress had been made in the field of prevention, where one of its main component is the administration of uterotonic, preferably oxytocin, immediately after birth of the baby. In many low- and middle income countries, the efficacy of oxytocin cannot be assured since access to sustained cold-chain is unavailable. Regarding the other uterotonics; ergometrine degrades when exposed to heat or light. Misoprostol degrades rapidly when exposed to Moisture. Innovation in the manufacture of carbetocin had meet the stability requirements for hot and humid climates. This study had been accomplished to evaluate the uterotonic effect of carbetocin compared with oxytocin for the prevention of postpartum haemorrhage in emergency caesarean delivery. Looking if carbetocin is superior to oxytocin in term of reduction in the need for additional uterotonic agents or the occurrence of PPH.
Headache control is one of the major challenges in patients who suffered an acute aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Headache affects 90% of the patient and is resistant to the major pain medication. It results from the increased intracranial pressure and the inflammation caused by the accumulation of arterial blood in the subarachnoid space. Hemorrhagic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) removal by a lumbar puncture (LP), is well tolerated, reduces intracranial pressure and accelerates the clearance of the blood products from CSF. Nonetheless it has never been tested in a randomized trial. The investigators aim to compare in patients who experienced a low grade aSAH, the variation of headache intensity after CSF removal by LP vs. Sham LP in addition to predefined analgesic protocol management.
This is a search strategy for determining the prevalence of ocular complications in inflammatory rheumatic diseases for the purposes of a meta analysis.
A study run at multiple study sites in Spain to test whether the SAMANTA questionnaire that is used to diagnose heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), can also be used to assess changes of severity of HMB in women with HMB who are treated during 12 months with a chronic hormonal treatment. Patients that are treated with chronic hormonal treatment as Levonorgestrel (trade name Mirena) or with a combination of estradiol valerate and dienogest (trade name Qlaira) or with Medroxyprogesterone acetate (trade name Progevera) and any new hormonal treatment marketed in Spain that has the indication for HMB in routine gynaecological practice are observed for 12 months in this study or for a shorter period in time in case of withdrawal. The study aims also to describe the overall satisfaction of women with their chronic hormonal treatment for HMB and how the women think their menstrual bleeding has changed. In addition the study aims to describe the changes of the score that is derived from the SAMANTA questionnaire in relation to Quality of Life. Quality of Life is measured with the SF36v2 questionnaire. The Short Form (36) Health Survey is a 36-item, patient-reported survey of patient health.
The objectives of this randomized withdrawal study are to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of the combination of relugolix, estradiol (E2) and norethindrone acetate (NETA), once daily, for up to 104 weeks in patients with uterine fibroids who have completed a total of 52 weeks of treatment, including a 24-week treatment period in a parent study (study MVT-601-3001 or MVT-601-3002) and a 28-week treatment period in the open-label extension study (MVT-601-3003), and who meet the definition of responder, defined as a patient who demonstrates a menstrual blood loss of < 80 mL and at least a 50% reduction from parent study baseline menstrual blood loss volume on the alkaline hematin analysis of the feminine products returned at Week 48 in the extension study.
The aim of the study is to evaluate haemostasis and fibrinolysis in peripartum of caesarean delivery and the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) given in prevention of post-partum haemorrhage (PPH).
The purpose of the present study is to explore the efficacy of small doses of oral glibenclamide on brain edema after acute primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and improving the prognosis of patients.
This trial will help inform the development of a new treatment for intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH; also known as haemorrhagic stroke). ICH is a type of stroke caused by spontaneous bleeding into the brain. In the hours to days after bleeding occurs, inflammation develops in the brain around the haematoma (collection of blood in the brain). Inflammation is the body's natural response to injury, however when it continues unchecked there is a risk that the brain tissue around the haematoma will become swollen. This type of swelling can worsen existing stroke symptoms or cause new deficits such as speech disturbance and limb weakness, which can lead to long term disability. The level of inflammation in the blood is high after ICH. The investigators want to investigate whether blocking this inflammation can improve overall recovery. The investigators research group has extensively investigated the use of a well-established anti-inflammatory drug, Kineret® in trials with patients who have suffered a stroke or brain haemorrhage. Kineret® is similar to a naturally-produced protein called interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) and is already licensed to treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The investigators have evidence from these previous studies that Kineret® reduced levels of inflammation in the blood after ischaemic stroke (caused by a blockage in an artery). However, in order to develop Kineret® as a treatment for ICH, the investigators need to know if it reduces levels of inflammation present in the blood following ICH and if it reduces swelling in the brain.
Post sphinterotomy-bleeding (PSB) occurs in 1-2 % of Endosocpic Retrograde Cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) and usually needs no blood transfusion after endoscopic therapy but can be life-threatening in some rare cases. There are no prospective comparative studies concerning the endoscopic treatment of PSB due to the rarity of the incident. Insertion of an endoprosthesis in the common bile duct may be more effective than Epinephrin-injection into the papilla which is the therapy of first choice. A retrospective single centre analysis on both used methods over a study period of 16 years shall be performed.
The files of hemorrhagic obstetric patients undergoing surgery and followed in the intensive care unit and using Fibrinogen and blood products were included in the study between January 2015- September 2018 at the Anesthesiology and Reanimation Clinic of SBU Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Hospital. Patients under 18 years of age were excluded from the study. In this study, ages, operation types, number of blood and products, the amount of fibrinogen, the results of the hemogram and bleeding parameters, the levels of fibrinogen, the duration of hospital stay and the intensive care unit were recorded.
