About this study

Official title: Intrauterine Misoprostol With Active Management of Labour Versus Active Management of Labour for Prevebtion of Postpartum Hemorage in Cesarean Section ,Randomized Controlled Trial

Several treatment strategies are emplemented to prevent post delivery hemorage and decreasing maternal morbidity and mortality .

Read the detailed description

Many approved drugs are used in prophylaxis against postpartum hemorage from these medications are the (syntocinon combined with methergine ) that are known as active management of labour drugs .

Moreover there is misotac , that also guards against postpartum hemorage .

All these medications act in a different way to cause uterine contraction post delivery to prevent uterine atony .

-Here we are comparing the additive value of misotac intrauterine to syntocinon and methergine in comparison to the usually used syntocinon plus methergine .

Being tested
Misoprostol + syntocinon and using extra uterotonic drugs when needed ; methergine, Syntocinon and using extra uterotonic drugs when needed ; methergine carboprost

A Phase 1 study testing Misoprostol + syntocinon and using extra uterotonic drugs when needed ; methergine and Syntocinon and using extra uterotonic drugs when needed ; methergine carboprost in people with Cesarean Section, run by Aljazeera Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number of participants who passed cesarean section without postpartum hemorage (time frame: within 2 days post CS). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Nov 2022.
