Dorsal clitoral artery Doppler examinations in women with bilateral internal iliac artery ligation due to postpartum hemorrhage (study group) and age-matched healthy puerperal women were performed regularly in the postoperative period, in order to evaluate possible effects of BIIAL on clitoral blood flow.
Excessive bleeding after dilation and evacuation (D&E) requiring interventions is common, occurring in approximately 30% of cases at one large abortion-providing clinic. Uterotonic prophylaxis at the time of D&E, particularly with methylergonovine maleate (MM), is a common practice among D&E providers despite nearly no evidence for its efficacy. Finding ways to decrease excessive bleeding after D&E has the potential both to improve patient safety and to reduce costs of provider-initiated interventions. The investigators propose a randomized, controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of MM prophylaxis versus placebo in decreasing excessive bleeding measured by a composite outcome among women undergoing D&E at 20 to 24 weeks.
Patients with cancer hospitalized for an acute medical illness have an increased risk of venous thromboembolic events. Although international guidelines suggest the use of thromboprophylaxis in these patients, the recommendations are based on studies which included a percentage of patients with cancer without primarily focusing on this high risk group. Since patients with cancer present an increased risk of bleeding complications it is critical to evaluate the safety of thromboprophylaxis in the cancer group. Recent studies suggest a limited use of thromboprophylaxis in these patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the use, efficacy and safety of thromboprophylaxis in medical cancer patients hospitalized for an acute medical disease. Design: observational, prospective study Primary end-point: incidence of major and clinically relevant non major bleeding during hospitalization Secondary endpoints: frequency of use, doses and contraindications for pharmacological thromboprophylaxis; venous thromboembolic events up to three months after discharge
To compare between the effect of controlled cord traction and manual removal of the placenta on blood loss among women undergoing caesarean sections
This study evaluates the efficacy of tranexamic acid versus placebo on perioperative blood loss using two dosage regimens (standard and extended) after a surgery during total hip arthroplasty in patients receiving the novel fast-acting oral anticoagulant rivaroxaban for prophylaxis of thrombosis.
The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, American Academy of Pediatrics and the World Health Organization have recently published recommendations related to placental transfusions in preterm infants. This project will review outcomes of preterm infants following a quality improvement implementation process in several delivery centers in Indiana. Centers involved in this project are also part of the Indiana Vermont Oxford Network (IRB#1003-84). Data is recorded for that network and the investigators site will be reviewing that data every 3 months from infants who have completed the Vermont Oxford Network collection. This project will specifically look at the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing entercolitis, periventricular leukomalacia, sepsis and death following the implementation of the ACOG recommendations.
The 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.
Previous studies in both the cardiovascular and orthopedic study have shown tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces blood loss and post-operative blood transfusion rate largely without major complications . In addition, many meta-analyses have confirmed these results . However, there is little information about comparison among the different routes of TXA administration in TKA. Therefore, this study has been designed to determine which administration route of TXA is more effective and safety.
