View clinical trials related to Placenta Accreta Spectrum.
Filter by:The placenta accreta spectrum is a heterogeneous disorder due to abnormal placental invasion into the uterine wall putting at risk the lives of the patients by causing a massive hemorrhage. Its incidence is increasing due to the rise of the cesarean section. The management of this spectrum is multidisciplinary but not yet codified. Hysterectomy-caesarean, though hemostatic surgery, remains the standard Gold. Several adjuvant treatments have emerged in recent years to minimize the risk of bleeding and morbidity of these disorders including the internal-iliac prophylactic occlusion balloons. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the effect of prophylactic occlusion balloons in both uterine iliac arteries in the management of placental accreta spectrum disorders.
Current prenatal diagnosis of placenta accrete spectrum disorders relies on subjective individual interpretations of visual sonographic findings on grayscale and color Doppler imaging. When blinded to clinical data, there is significant interobserver variability in the diagnosis of invasive placentation. This study will evaluate placental thickness among pregnant women with placenta previa and determine if increased placenta thickness correlates with the risk for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders.
participants diagnosed as placenta accreta spectrum were subjected to cesarean delivery. Investigators manually detected a plan of cleavage through which the placenta was separated followed by closure of defective placental bed. Data were collected about the outcome.
The placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) which includes accreta, increta, and percreta represents a significant obstetric challenge. PAS complicates as many as 1 per 500 pregnancies and this risk is increased with prior cesarean deliveries. Antenatal diagnosis of PAS allows for multidisciplinary planning and delivery before the onset of labor and/or vaginal bleeding. This approach has reduced maternal morbidity rates, including less blood loss, fewer transfusion requirements and, intraoperative urologic injuries as well as improve fetal outcome. Ultrasound evaluation, with grayscale and color Doppler imaging, is the recommended first-line modality for diagnosing PAS. Grayscale ultrasound features suggestive of placenta accreta include an inability to visualize the normal retroplacental clear zone, irregularity, and attenuation of the uterine-bladder interface, retroplacental myometrial thickness, presence of intraplacental lacunar spaces, and bridging vessels between the placenta and bladder wall when using color Doppler. The placenta accreta index (PAI) score (a nine-point score) was proposed in 2015 to predict PAS based on US parameters in a high-risk population by retrospective data analysis. The probability of histological invasion was found to increase with increasing the PAI score. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of the PAI in the prediction of PAS in relation to histopathological findings.
