Clinical Trial Summary

Patients were allocated to group A and B. In group A, balloon tamponade (using Foley catheter 28 Fr) was used intra-operatively to prevent post-partum hemorrhage. In group B, B lynch suture was used intra-operatively to prevent post-partum hemorrhage.

Description:

After approval from hospital ethical committee, patients fulfilling the inclusion & exclusion criteria were recruited after taking informed written consent for surgery. Patients were allocated to group A and B using computer generated random sample allocation. In group A, balloon tamponade (using Foley catheter 28 Fr) was used intra-operatively to prevent post-partum hemorrhage. Post-operative blood loss within first 24 hours was estimated by measuring the amount of blood collected in Foley balloon tamponade bag, in milliliters. In group B, B-lynch suture was used intra-operatively to prevent post-partum hemorrhage. Post-operative blood loss within first 24 hours was estimated by the weight difference of the pads before and after patient use (1-gram weight difference = 1 ml blood volume lost). Mean blood loss within first 24 hours post procedure, was compared in both the groups for outcome measurement.
