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 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.
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 whether giving a specific combination of three medicines during a planned c-section is better than one medicine alone for preventing postpartum hemorrhage (heavy bleeding after birth).
This trial tests whether taking an oral medication called tranexamic acid can reduce heavy bleeding after childbirth in women planning a vaginal delivery. It may help you have a safer birth with less blood loss.
This study looks for hidden bleeding disorders in women who had severe bleeding after a vaginal birth. If you had a postpartum hemorrhage in the last year, they want to check if there was an underlying cause.
