Filter by:A randomized controlled trial that aimed at studying the values (if any) of subcutaneous drains use in lean women during Cesarean section.
Neonatal hypothermia is associated with increased risk of mortality as well as multiple morbidities. The prior HEAT study conducted at our institution showed a difference in neonatal hypothermia with a change in ambient operating room temperature. The investigator's objective is to determine if an increase in ambient operative room temperature decreases the rate of neonatal morbidity. Operating room temperature will be randomized to the current institutional standard of 20°C (67°F) or a temperature of 24°C (75°F), on a weekly basis for a period of 1.2 years.
The transversus abdominis plane block (TAP block) is an effective method of postoperative pain management after cesarean section (C-section). Up to now, there are no data available about bupivacaine (BPV) plasma levels after TAP block in adults. In the current study, the investigators aimed to assess BPV pharmacokinetic parameters after ultrasound-guided TAP block using BPV in parturients undergoing C-section and to report its effects on corrected QT interval.
900 parturient who underwent CS under general anesthesia(GA) , intraspinal anesthesia included epidural anesthesia(EA) and combined spinal-epidural anesthesia(CSEA), which were divided into 3 groups: Morbid Obesity group (n=300) with body mass index (BMI) >40 kg/m2 , severe Obesity group (n=300) with 30 kg/m2≤BMI ≤40 kg/m2 and non-Obesity group(n=300) with BMI<30 kg/m2. Findings Between January 1, 2013 and September 30, 2016, a total of 1000 women met inclusion criteria and 900 women received allocated intervention. All patients were divided into three groups: Morbid Obesity group(n=300), Severe Obesity group(n=300) and non-Obesity group(n=300) according to body mass index (BMI) >40 kg/m2, 30 kg/m2≤BMI ≤40 kg/m2 and BMI<30 kg/m2.900 patients completed the protocol and related data were analysed.
The investigators aim to conduct a randomized controlled trial of women who are pregnant or considering pregnancy to understand whether women provided with specific data on hospital-level cesarean delivery rates are more likely to select higher quality hospitals, defined as hospitals with cesarean delivery rates below the Federal HealthyPeople 2020 target of 23.9%.
Cesarean section is the most common surgical procedure performed on women. Over the years minor variations of each surgical step have been introduced, and cesarean sections are not standardized and many different techniques are employed during surgery. Creation of a bladder flap has been an integral surgical step of the cesarean section for many years. The role of the bladder flap and its usefulness in cesarean section is not known well. Further, in some cases the bladder flap is omitted during cesarean section. The aim of the current study is to compare operating time and postoperative urinary symptoms in cesarean sections using either bladder flap or omission of flap.
This was an unblinded randomized controlled trial. Women were randomized to uterine closure with the knotless barbed suture (Stratafix PDS, Ethicon) or Vicryl (Ethicon) at the time of elective cesarean. The primary outcome was closure time of the uterine incision. Also measured were blood loss during incision closure and the use of additional hemostatic sutures. Informed consent was obtained
The study will compare one technique of fluid administration (combined colloid preload and crystalloid colaod) with another one (crystalloid coload) during elective cesarean delivery performed under spinal anesthesia.
To determine whether women randomized to an enhanced recovery program will have improved postoperative outcomes including improved breastfeeding initiation and continuation, reduction in hospital length of stay without compromising patient satisfaction in comparison to standard postoperative recovery interventions.
This study is designed as a prospective, randomized controlled trial that will compare the use of the peanut exercise ball in laboring patients compared with no use of the exercise ball. We hypothesize that use of the peanut ball decreases the incidence of cesarean section.
