Comparing two tubal removal methods during C-section
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of removing the fallopian tubes (salpingectomy) during a planned C-section for permanent birth control. You and your baby will get the same standard care, and the study helps find which technique works best.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at removing fallopian tubes during other planned surgeries to help prevent ovarian cancer. You may be able to join if you are at least 45 years old, are female or assigned female at birth, and are having non-gynecologic surgery (like gallbladder or hernia repair).
This study looks at how much opioid pain medicine people need after having their fallopian tubes removed through small incisions (laparoscopic or robotic salpingectomy). It aims to see if the usual pain medicine can be reduced to decrease opioid use.
This trial is comparing two ways to remove the fallopian tubes and ovaries during a vaginal hysterectomy for pelvic organ prolapse: one using energy-based devices (like a cauterizing tool) and the other using a standard cold scalpel method. It will help determine if the energy-based approach offers any benefits, such as less blood loss or faster recovery.
This study compares two ways to remove the uterus (hysterectomy) for non-cancerous conditions: one using small cuts and a camera (laparoscopic), and the other using a larger belly cut (abdominal). It aims to see which method works better in settings with limited resources.
This study compares two ways of making the uterine incision (the cut into the womb) during a planned C-section: one using special scissors and the other using a scalpel (a surgical knife). The goal is to see which method is safer or better for you and your baby.
This trial compares two keyhole (laparoscopic) surgeries for removing the uterus in women with non-cancerous conditions like fibroids or heavy bleeding. One method blocks the blood supply to the uterus first, which may reduce bleeding during surgery.
