Uterine Atony clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Placental Removal Method And Uterine Massage On Preventing Postpartum Hemorrhage

Start date: January 10, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal deaths in all over the world, especially in developing and underdeveloped countries. Medical and surgical methods exist for management of bleeding. There are two surgical techniques for removal of the placenta on cesarean delivery, which are called manual removal and controlled cord traction. In manual removal group, the duration of surgery time might be shorter theoretically. Nevertheless, there are studies showing that manual removal of the placenta may increase postpartum endometritis and postpartum hemorrhage. The optimal method for removal of the placenta during the cesarean delivery remains uncertain (1). It is a known fact that uterine massage after vaginal birth lowers the risk of postpartum hemorrhage (2) However, there is no study on how effective uterine massage is during cesarean delivery. In 2018, Saccone and colleagues wanted to publish a meta-analysis on the role of uterine massage in reducing postpartum bleeding during cesarean delivery, but when they examined the literature on the subject, they could not find a study which included only the group that gave birth by cesarean section and was free from bias. In the same publication, it was mentioned that it was necessary to investigate the effectiveness of uterine massage, which is a cost-free method that can reduce maternal morbidity in underdeveloped countries where maternal deaths due to postpartum bleeding are high, in cesarean section.
