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 ultrasound to measure the placenta and the uterine muscle where it attaches, to help predict heavy bleeding after childbirth in women with placenta accreta. The goal is to better identify who might be at risk, so doctors can be prepared and improve safety during delivery.
This study compares two medicines—carbetocin and oxytocin—given during a planned cesarean to help prevent heavy bleeding after delivery. It is for women who have certain risk factors for uterine atony (when the uterus does not tighten up after birth).
This trial tests a new under-the-tongue tablet (sublingual oxytocin) to prevent heavy bleeding after childbirth. It aims to see if it works safely in healthy women having a vaginal delivery at full term.
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid, a medicine that helps blood clot, can prevent postpartum hemorrhage (heavy bleeding after delivery) in people having a planned C-section or likely vaginal delivery after 34 weeks. It may help lower the risk of dangerous bleeding around the time of birth.
This study compares two ways to prevent heavy bleeding after a C-section. One uses a combination of three medicines, and the other uses a single medicine. The goal is to find which is safer and more effective at reducing blood loss.
