Clinical Trial Summary

This study compares the effect of starting intravenous oxytocin infusion early before uterine incision versus late after umbilical cord clamping on the blood loss during elective cesarean section


Clinical Trial Description

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is still the major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide contributing to nearly 25% of direct maternal deaths. The average blood loss during cesarean section is 1000 ml which is nearly double the blood loss during vaginal delivery. Worldwide, the most commonly used uterotonic for the prevention of PPH is oxytocin. Several regimens of oxytocin have been tested during cesarean section with variable wanted (uterotonic) and unwanted (cardiovascular) effects. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that initiating IV oxytocin infusion earlier before uterine incision would induce a rapid acceptable uterine contraction and minimize the intraoperative blood loss than the same dose administered after delivery of the fetus. ;
