Clinical Trial Summary

to compare effectiveness and tolerability of carbetocin versus syntometrine in prevention of Postpartum hemorrhage after cesarean section

Description:

A double blind randomized study conducted on 450 pregnant subjected randomly either to single 100 μg IV dose of carbetocin (150 women) or combination of 5 IU oxytocin and 0.2 mg ergometrine (300 women) after fetal extraction and before placental removal. Prevention of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) after cesarean section (CS) had been evaluated by measurement of drop of Hemoglobin and hematocrit, incidence of PPH and number of subjects needed additional oxytocic
