Trial summary

The rotational thromboelastogram (ROTEM) test can be performed on patients with placenta previa/accreta/increta/percreta who have a high likelihood of massive bleeding, and the predictors can be identified by comparing the patients who actually show massive bleeding with those who do not.

About this study

Official title: Rotational Thromboelastometry During Cesarean Section as a Predictive Evaluation for Progression of Intraoperative Massive Hemorrhage in Parturients With a Potential Risk of Perioperative Hemorrhage: a Prospective Observational Study

The rotational thromboelastogram (ROTEM) test can be performed on patients with placenta previa/accreta/increta/percreta who have a high likelihood of massive bleeding, and the predictors can be identified by comparing the patients who actually show massive bleeding with those who do not.

Applying these predictive factors to pregnant women undergoing cesarean section after diagnosis of placenta previa/accreta/increta/percreta, it will be advantageous for the perioperative management because it is possible to select pregnant women with a factor of massive bleeding.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Blood loss

    Volume of intraoperative blood loss

    Measured: 1 min after finishing an operation

  2. Change of INTEM

    intrinsic pathway component

    Measured: 10 min after spinal anesthesia, 5 min after baby delivery, 1 min after finishing operation

  3. Change of EXTEM

    extrinsic pathway component

    Measured: 10 min after spinal anesthesia, 5 min after baby delivery, 1 min after finishing operation

  4. Change of APTEM

    fibrinolytic component

    Measured: 10 min after spinal anesthesia, 5 min after baby delivery, 1 min after finishing operation

  5. Change of FIBTEM

    the level of fibrinogen

    Measured: 10 min after spinal anesthesia, 5 min after baby delivery, 1 min after finishing operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Placenta Previa and Placenta Accreta, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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 2 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 South Korea. 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.

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?

Blood loss (time frame: 1 min after finishing an operation). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Nov 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
