Filter by:The investigators hypothesis in this study is that administration of rectal and sublingual misoprostol decreases intrapartum and postpartum haemorrhage.
The purpose of the study is to find out if the regimen of prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) together with fibrinogen concentrate is as efficient as fresh frozen plasma (FFP) (plus fibrinogen if needed) during the early stages of the transfusion therapy in postpartum haemorrhage (PPH). The original protocol included the use of HES and the recruitment of patients was postponed while waiting the final decision by EMA. All HES solutions were abandoned at our institution in September and an amendment was made to change the protocol. HES solution are replaced by the use of hyperoncotic (20%) albumin.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of IV high single dose infusion of iron isomaltoside 1000 to standard medical care in women with PPH evaluated as physical fatigue.
A double-blind individual randomized controlled study of misoprostol vs. placebo for treatment in homebirths in the Chitral district, in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan.
Severe maternal bleeding is a serious complication of birth and causes 125.000 deaths worldwide each year. The investigators aim to investigate if early treatment with fibrinogen concentrate versus saline can reduce the incidence of blood transfusion in women with postpartum haemorrhage. A low level of fibrinogen has been associated with increased blood loss and transfusion requirements in different clinical settings including obstetrical bleeding. Early up-front treatment with fibrinogen may reduce incidence of transfusion by securing optimal haemostatic capacity in women with postpartum haemorrhage. The investigators plan to enrol 245 patients on four hospitals in the Capital Region of Denmark during a two year period. As safety measure the investigators plan to use TEG®/Functional Fibrinogen/Rapid-TEG as haemostatic monitoring of all participants during the trial: Baseline test is taken at inclusion before administration of fibrinogen concentrate/placebo. Further tests are taken immediately after intervention, 4 hours and 24 hours after. Baseline test is blinded to the providers of treatment - the rest is clinically available.
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) remains the major cause of maternal mortality in France. The most efficient treatment of severe PPH is sulprostone which is associated with cardiac complications. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and the safety of intrarectal misoprostol for curative postpartum haemorrhage treatment. We conducted a multicenter double blind randomized placebo control trial between June 2004 and December 2007, among consenting women with postpartum haemorrhage and failure to oxytocin treatment. Our main criteria of judgement was quantification of blood loss and the use of sulprostone between the two groups using either misoprostol intrarectal tablets (5X200mg ) or placebo in similar opaque introducer.
The primary purpose of the trial is to evaluate whether the management of placental delivery with controlled cord traction (CCT) reduces the incidence of postpartum haemorrhage, compared with management waiting for clinical signs of spontaneous placental separation, in women with vaginal delivery receiving prophylactic oxytocin for the management of the third stage of labour. The hypothesis is that CCT, by reducing the length of the third stage of labour, facilitates early postpartum uterine contraction and local haemostasis and decreases post partum blood loss.
The WOMAN trial is a large pragmatic randomised double-blind, placebo controlled trial to quantify the effects of the early administration of tranexamic acid on death, hysterectomy and other relevant outcomes. 20,000 adult women, after delivery who have clinically diagnosed postpartum haemorrhage, are eligible if the responsible doctor is for any reason substantially uncertain whether or not to use an antifibrinolytic agent. Additionally, TWO nested studies will be conducted in a subset of women trial participants. The first nested study (ETAC) aims to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) on markers of coagulation in 400 women randomised to the WOMAN trial. The second nested study (ETAPLAT) aims to evaluate the haemostatic effect and antithrombotic effect of TXA in 128 women randomised to the WOMAN trial.
Intramuscular carbetocin is as effective as intramuscular syntometrine for the prevention of postpartum haemorrhage
