View clinical trials related to Vaginal Bleeding.
Filter by:Abruptio placenta is one of the common causes of antepartum haemorrhage which is more common in the second half of pregnancy and causes a high maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality
The aim of the study was to assess the post-market performance and tolerability of Cerviron® ovules in the treatment and management of cervical lesions of different etiologies. The study included clinical data related to aspect of lesions performed during routine colposcopy exams, the degree of re-epithelialization of the cervical mucosa, vaginal pH, pain level, and vaginal bleeding level.
Early treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) II-III gives rise to a decrease in the incidence of invasive cervical cancer. Though there is no obvious consensus from randomized studies as to the optimal management of CIN II-III, loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is the most extensively used method because of its technical ease, inexpensive, steep learning curve, and low rate of complications. In spite of these benefits, current literature suggests that some patients experience some complications such as postoperative vaginal bleeding, abnormal vaginal discharge, abdominal pain, and infection. These adversely affect the recovery period, increase patient anxiety, readmission to the hospital for further treatment and encumber patients' daily life. Postoperative vaginal bleeding (PVB) is one of the most common and unpleasant of these complications. Its incidence has been reported to vary between 2% to 78%. Many different types of treatments have been applied to avert or diminish PVC such as the use of vasopressin, tranexamic acid, Monsel's solution, and local hemostats (e.g., TachoSil or Tisseel), but these attempts have failed to show precise benefits over routine clinical approaches. Chitosan is a biodegradable, natural polyaminosaccharide with a nontoxic, non-allergenic, positively-charged polysaccharide derived from the deacetylation of chitin. Due to its molecular characteristics, chitosan has been used for improved hemostasis. Furthermore, chitosan has an antimicrobial and wound-healing effect. The current literature concerning the influence of using chitosan after the LEEP is limited to only one trial. The authors of that study reported that using chitosan after the LEEP can reduce vaginal bleeding and enhancing wound healing. However, that study has some limitations. Therefore, investigators designed this randomized trial to assess the effect of local chitosan implementation on postoperative vaginal bleeding and wound healing in LEEP
Placenta previa is usually diagnosed when the placenta implanted in the lower uterine segment, thus partially or totally overlying the internal os . It occurs with an incidence of 0.3-0.5%. It is associated mainly with prior caesarean delivery . The condition is frequently complicated by invasion of placental villi beyond the decidua basalis causing placenta accreta . Placenta previa is a major cause of massive haemorrhage during pregnancy and after delivery . The antepartum bleeding from placenta previa- can be life-threatening, thus, the prediction of this bleeding is of great importance . It is important to distinguish between women at high and low risk for antepartum haemorrhage with placenta previa especially at late pregnancy . However, the potential risk factors for antepartum haemorrhage in women with placenta previa have not been thoroughly examined.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the ability of medicines called tamoxifen or estradiol to prevent annoying vaginal bleeding for arm implant users.
Clinical evaluation of Fitostimoline vaginal pessaries in the treatment of hysterectomy. An observational, randomized, perspective study performed on 60 women where 30 women are treated with fitostimoline pessaries and 30 women are treated with the standard of care.
This study will be a prospective cohort study. Patients who meet criteria for inclusion in the study will be approached for participation at same day of admission. Written informed consent will be obtained from the patients by the Co-principal investigator and by the study collaborators. If patients agree to participate, a CBC (complete blood count) will be obtained via venous puncture routine in our facility as part of the admission labs which will be around 10 cc of blood. The device will be used during the delivery in laboring room. The device will be used to assess QBL (quantitative blood loss) by the research staff only and results/ QBL assessment will be masked to the clinical team. Unmasking will only occur following study completion with purpose to perform data analysis. Patient management will be according to the clinical team without the knowledge of the QBL. All patients undergo a CBC postpartum as part of post-partum evaluation, this will also be performed by venipuncture where 10 cc of blood will be collected. The drop in Hgb (hemoglobin) between the pre and post partum CBCs will be calculated for each patient. The post-partum CBC will be collected approximately 24-30 hours from delivery as standard in our unit. The blood will be collected from each patient by the nursing staff who are experienced in withdrawing blood. Patients will be divided into quartiles of Hgb. Cases will be those patients whose Hgb is in the upper quartile, while controls will be those patients whose Hgb is in the lower 3 quartiles. We will be comparing visual EBL (estimated blood loss) by standard clinical assessment versus the QBL result from the device between cases and controls. The Triton L&D (labor and delivery) system which comprises of the device, software analysis and staff training will be supplied by the manufacturer free of charge. Research staff will be trained by the manufacturer. We will be offering our skills, fellows, midwifes and residents, who will be collecting data and we will be performing the data analysis. Results will be available to the manufacturer after results are completed. The results of this study will be presented in conferences or published in a peer-review journal. Demographic information will be obtained from the electronic medical record. The data will be kept on a password secured University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) computer. An encrypted USB flash drive will be used to transfer data. The data will be identified and linked to the patient using the medical record number. During data analysis, all patient identifiers will be deleted.
the study aims to assess the reliability of ultrasound findings measured by hand held ultrasound probes used by operators with variable experience in a low resource hospital.
Women presenting for contraception will be offered the IUS Skyla and study participation. Daily bleeding will be collected for a total of 90 days and correlated with insertion timing and baseline endometrial thickness.
This study is a counseling intervention for new LNG-IUS users. The study explores the use of video technology to deliver anticipatory counseling on LNG-IUS side-effects, adjustment periods and bleeding changes to women newly using the LNG-IUS for contraceptive purposes. The primary aim is to understand if anticipatory counseling delivered via video can increase LNG-IUS satisfaction and continuation of the device in the first 6 months of use.
