NCT ID: NCT06351969 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Post Partum Hemorrhage

Evaluating Placental Thickness and Thickness of Uterine Muscle at Placenta Attachment in Prediction of Postpartum Blood Loss

Start date: December 21, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Aim of the Work is To determine the significance of the placental thickness and the thickness of the uterine muscle layer at placenta attachment in the prediction of postpartum hemorrhage and to evaluate both of them as as parameters for identifying high-risk patients.

NCT ID: NCT06310720 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Depression

Postpartum Video Education in High Risk Populations

Start date: May 9, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a prospective, single-center, randomized control study to determine if video education at the time of postpartum discharge improves patient knowledge on the warning signs for the top three causes of severe maternal morbidity (infection, hemorrhage, and blood pressure disorders) in the first seven days following delivery for self-identified, Black, Latinx, other with two or more self-identified races, Medicaid, and/or uninsured postpartum individuals. Participants will be randomized to written discharge education + video education (intervention) vs standard discharge education (control). They will complete a baseline questionnaire and a post-discharge education questionnaire during their postpartum stay to assess for knowledge improvement. The investigators hypothesize that video education will improve patient's knowledge of severe maternal morbidity warning signs.

NCT ID: NCT06285409 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Comparing the Dose-response Profiles of Uterotonics After Initial Carbetocin Administration - an Ex-vivo Study in Desensitized Human Myometrium

Start date: April 4, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will investigate the effects of drugs called "uterotonics" that help with the contraction of the uterus after a baby is born. This uterine contraction is very important to stop the bleeding after delivery. An uncontracted uterine state is called "uterine atony", which can lead to an excessive amount of post-delivery bleeding. Carbetocin is an uterotonic drug that works well to prevent post-delivery bleeding. In some cases, carbetocin is not enough to contract the uterus, and ongoing bleeding continues. When that happens, there are other uterotonic medications that can be used. In this study, we aim to find which uterotonic drug, amongst those available (oxytocin, carbetocin, ergometrine or carboprost), is more effective to lower the risk of post-delivery bleeding once carbetocin has already been administered. This study will be done by using a very small sample of uterine tissue, taken from the incision site, following delivery by cesarean section. The sample is taken to the laboratory and will be exposed to carbetocin followed by other uterotonic drugs. The information obtained from this study will help modify the treatment for uterine atony and post-delivery bleeding to lower the risk further.

NCT ID: NCT06285396 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Effect of Ephedrine, Phenylepinephrine, and Norepinephrine on Myometrial Contractility in Pregnant People With Type II and Gestational Diabetes During Cesarean Section: An In-vitro Study

Start date: March 18, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this study is to learn about how medication that is used to help treat low blood pressure during a Cesarean delivery (CD) can cause changes to the uterine muscle tissue and its ability to contract, in patients with Type II and gestational diabetes. Spinal anesthesia administered during elective CD has been known to cause hypotension (low blood pressure) as a side effect during the procedure, and is prevented by administration of vasopressors (medication to raise blood pressure) by the anesthesiologist after the delivery of the baby. Vasopressors treat hypotension by interacting with receptors on blood vessels that increase blood pressure, which can also cause changes to uterine contractility. Inadequate uterine contraction after CD can expose mothers to postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), with diabetic patients displaying a 2.5-times higher risk of PPH. It is important to understand how vasopressor(s) might affect the uterine contractility of women with Type II and gestational diabetes. Since medication to contract the uterus is also routinely administered at delivery, it is important to study the effect of these drugs in combination. The purpose of this study is to compare uterine contractility patterns and receptor distribution in women with type II and gestational diabetic and control term pregnant patients with administration of vasopressors. This will be done using small uterine tissue samples taken from the incision site following CD, which will then be used for experiments in the laboratory.

NCT ID: NCT06219538 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Cesarean Section Complications

DAISY Uterine Drain Device Evaluation

Start date: May 22, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this study is to obtain user feedback while placing and observing the DAISY uterine drain with wall suction. This study defines the obstetrical surgeons as "users" and the patients in whom the drain is placed as "participants." Participants are pregnant women who are undergoing cesarean delivery (CD), who have not entered active labor, who have consented to drain placement and who have met all the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Users are staff or fellow obstetrical surgeons who will use the drain and provide the evaluation.

NCT ID: NCT06164236 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Study of Predictors of Failure of Sulprostone Treatment in Postpartum Hemorrhage

NALAPOST
Start date: October 19, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The investigators wish to identify potential factors predicting failure of second-line drug treatment (sulproston (Nalador®)): risk factors and factors linked to a failure to take initial care for PPH. A better understanding of the aggravating factors of HPP and more particularly the factors inherent to the initial care would make it possible to think of ways to improve practices.

NCT ID: NCT06025916 Recruiting - PPH Clinical Trials

Postpartum Hemorrhage Reduction With Oral Tranexamic Acid: a Clinical Trial

PROTECT
Start date: September 27, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This is a multicentre randomized placebo-controlled double-blinded phase IV study among 1000 women in Sweden and South Africa on the effect of oral tranexamic acid on PPH after vaginal delivery. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of orally administered tranexamic acid (TA) compared to placebo on rate of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after vaginal birth. Participants will be randomized to receive either 20 ml (2g) of the investigational medicinal product (TA100mg/ml) or 20ml of a placebo solution during labor. Our main endpoint, assessed at 24 hours after delivery is PPH defined as blood loss >=500ml and assessed both by weight and pre-postpartum hemoglobin (Hb) decrease >10 units difference in vaginal deliveries

NCT ID: NCT05811676 Recruiting - Placenta Previa Clinical Trials

Tranexamic Acid for the Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage in Pregnant Women With Placenta Previa

TRAPP
Start date: July 12, 2023
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT05772156 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Prophylactic Methylergonovine for Twin Cesarean

Start date: March 7, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Obstetrical hemorrhage (excessive bleeding related to pregnancy) is a leading cause of maternal morbidity (disease or symptom of disease) and mortality (death) worldwide with a significantly higher frequency and severity following cesarean delivery. Twin gestations (twin pregnancy) are at particularly higher risk for postpartum hemorrhage, yet the management of obstetrical bleeding following twin delivery remains identical to singleton delivery. The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of prophylactic methylergonovine on blood loss in scheduled twin pregnancy cesarean deliveries. Participants will be randomized (like tossing a coin) to Methylergonovine (investigational drug) or water with salt (saline) (placebo). Methylergonovine or saline will be given as an injection immediately after delivery.

NCT ID: NCT05670886 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Postpartum Hemorrhage

Routine Bilateral Uterine Artery Ligation During the Cesarean Delivery of Multiple Gestation

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Multiple pregnancy is well defined to be associated with a greater risk of postpartum blood loss . Interventions to control PPH generally stepped from less to more invasive and including compression maneuvers , drugs , and further radical surgeries. Conservative management plans such as medications which cause the uterus to contract, external massage to the uterine body , and bimanual compression are overall used as 1st line interventions. PPH was defined as a cumulative blood loss of 1,000 mL or more, or blood loss that occurred within 24 hours of childbirth and was accompanied by indications or symptoms of hypervolemia. The most frequent cause of PPH, which accounted for roughly 80% of cases, is uterine atony (3). PPH is brought on by hyperexpansion, which impaired uterine myometrial contractility and caused uterine contraction fatigue , PPH were twice as high when pregnant with twins (4).The only effective surgical treatment for blood loss is a hysterectomy, but this is a risky procedure, especially for young women.(5) Due to this, a number of fertility-preserving surgical procedures have been developed, including the B-Lynch technique, internal iliac artery ligation, and uterine artery ligation (UAL) One of the most widely used surgical methods for preserving fertility is UAL. It is simple to carry out and works well to control PPH. Additionally, it permits patients to have more children in the future and is generally safe. Additionally, it has a success rate of above 90%. Concerns have been raised about its effect on women who want to become pregnant in the future regarding their ovarian reserve. The accepted practice of medicine worldwide is the prophylactic use of uterotonics. A synthetic oxytocin analogue with a lengthy half-life, carbetocin also stimulates uterine contractions . One benefit of carbetocin over oxytocin is that it is more heat-stable, which is of greater importance to low resource settings . Studies compare the effectiveness of carbetocin and oxytocin in preventing PPH and find that carbetocin is equally effective or even more effective.
