Filter by:Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), encompassing the terms placenta accreta, increta, and percreta; abnormally invasive placenta; morbidly adherent placenta; and invasive placentation, is a leading cause of life-threatening obstetric haemorrage (1) . Currently, more than 90% of women diagnosed with PAS also have a placenta praevia (2), and the combination of both conditions leads to high maternal morbidity and mortality due to massive haemorrhage at the time of birth . Maternal mortality of placenta praevia with percreta has been reported to be as high as 7% of cases . Hydrogen peroxide is well-known for its antimicrobial and antiseptic properties. It is used to clean surgical cuts for better localization of bleeding focus in surgery and orthopedics and burn excisions to induce hemostasis . Topical application of hydrogen peroxide was proven to induce hemostasis and reduce operative time in both tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy .

Maternal mortality of placenta praevia with percreta has been reported to be as high as 7% of cases . Adrenaline has also been demonstrated to be a reasonable hemostatic agent because of its low cost, low risk, powerful vasoconstrictor, and platelet aggregation. Topical use of adrenaline is an effective and reasonable hemostatic agent in tonsillectomy.
Many RCT(randomized controlled trial) studies reported that tranexamic acid reduced blood loss in women who had elective cesareans. However, most of these elective cesareans are without high-risk factors of postpartum hemorrhage, such as placenta previa. The prophylactic use of tranexamic acid in the placenta previa is not clear. studies had poor quality and lacked adequate power to assess severe adverse events.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasonographic parameters (cervical length, placental thickness and distance placental edge from internal os of the cervix) in predicting the risk of antepartum hemorrhage and emergency cesarean delivery in asymptomatic women with placenta previa.
placenta accreta spectrum is group of disorders which have a depate about the best way of management. this is a descriptive study about the best techniques to reduce morbidity and mortalities related to it.
Objective to investigate the effect of adjunctive intravenous tranexamic acid (TA) on blood loss during cesarean section (CS) in patients with placenta previa undergone Bakri balloon tamponade
This study will be performed to compare the effectiveness of routine Bakri balloon tamponade and Bilateral Uterine Artery Ligation during cesarean section in patients with placenta previa
Prophylactic tranexamic acid will reduce blood loss during Caesarean section for placenta praevia
Several randomized, controlled trials, mostly involving women undergoing cesarean delivery, have shown that the prophylactic intravenous administration of 1 g of tranexamic acid after childbirth reduced blood loss. Most were small, single-centre trials with considerable methodologic limitations. It is important to emphasize that none of these RCTs has included women at increased risk of PPH such as placenta previa, a context in which the prevalence of moderate and severe blood loss is significantly higher and where the magnitude of the effect of TXA may highly differ compared to low risk women
200 pregnant women with symptomatic placenta previa with previous bleeding attacks attending Ain Shams University maternity hospital will be recruited and randomized to receive either tranexamic acid tablets (500mg four times daily) or placebo. Amount of bleeding during antepartum bleeding attacks will be estimated (by hemoglobin change from baseline at admission till delivery).
