Post-Abortion Clinical Trial
Official title:
Oxytocin Receptor Expression in Pregnancy: When Does it Turn on
This study aims to determine when during gestation oxytocin receptor (OXTR) expression increases in the myometrium, which will contribute new insight to the management of obstetric hemorrhage and our understanding of normal and abnormal labor.
In this descriptive study, we will obtain myometrial tissue samples by core needle biopsy under ultrasound guidance in anesthetized women immediately following surgical abortion and from controls, all of whom are undergoing a separate planned obstetric/gynecologic surgery. Tissue studies will be performed on these biopsy samples to examine oxytocin receptor expression and function. ;
