Predicting blood loss after birth with placenta accreta
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to measure the thickness of the placenta and nearby uterus in pregnant women with a condition called placenta accreta, to see if these measurements can help predict how much bleeding might happen after delivery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 37 weeks pregnant.
- You must be carrying only one baby.
- You cannot have a serious blood disorder that affects clotting.
- You cannot have had heavy bleeding after a previous pregnancy.

This trial tests a way to predict heavy bleeding after childbirth. It includes people having a vaginal or cesarean delivery and aims to help doctors prepare for and prevent complications.
This trial uses an ultrasound after you give birth to see if it can help predict heavy bleeding. It aims to find safer ways to monitor and prevent hemorrhage in new mothers.
This study uses special ultrasound measurements to estimate the chance of bleeding before delivery in people who have placenta previa but no symptoms. The goal is to help clinicians better predict risk and plan care.
This study tests a safe method using a tourniquet (a gentle band) during planned C-section to help manage placenta accreta, a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus. The goal is to improve outcomes for both mother and baby.
This trial tests a new surgical technique for women with placenta accreta (a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterus). The technique uses a special band (tourniquet) to reduce bleeding during surgery, compared to the standard approach. If you have had a C-section before and want to keep your uterus for future children, this study may be an option for you.
This trial studies what happens after a planned C-section when placenta accreta spectrum is diagnosed by ultrasound and the uterus is kept. It may help doctors understand the safest way to manage this condition and what outcomes to expect.
