Clinical Trial Summary

Objective: to demonstrate that buccal misoprostol administration during cesarean delivery in women with risk factors for uterine atony decreases the need for additional uterotonic medications, uterine atony and postpartum hemorrhage.

Design: randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients and methods: 120 pregnant women with risk factors for uterine atony who underwent cesarean delivery were assigned randomly to either 400 mcg misoprostol (n=60) or placebo (n=60) placed in buccal space after umbilical cord clamping. The primary outcome variables were the need for additional uterotonic agents, estimated blood loss and uterine atony. ;
