About this study

Official title: Clinical Outcomes of Cesarean Scar Pregnancy With Different Type: a Prospective Cohort Study

This study is a prospective cohort study, led by Prof. Zhao Yangyu, from the Department of Gynecology \& Obstetrics, Peking University Third Hospital.

Read the detailed description

Cesarean section, myomectomy and other surgeries for uterus are likely to cause scars in different parts of the uterus. During the subsequent pregnancy, the incidence rate of cesarean scar pregnancy, placenta previa, placenta increta and the risk of termination of the first and mid-trimester pregnancy is likely to increase. Cesarean scar pregnancy is regarded as a risk factor of uterine rupture in the third trimester of pregnancy or delivery period, which severely affects the maternal and perinatal health and safety. This study is planning to prospectively include pregnant women aged 20-49 years from Peking University Third Hospital. All women with diagnosis on cesarean scar pregnancy was included prior to 14 wks of gestation. We divided the women into three different groups: type I, type II and type III according to characteristics in gestation sac,uterine scar, bladder, the latter with potentially worse outcomes in term of maternal morbidity and mortality. Data including demographics, medical history, reproductive history, prenatal health care, gestational complications, and pregnancy and birth outcomes will be collected via electronic data capture system.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT05481606
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Type I1) the gestational sac is partially implanted in the uterine scar, partially or mostly located in the uterine cavity, and a few may even reach the uterine cavity at the bottom of the palace; 2) the gestational sac is significantly deformed, and elongated, and its the lower end presented a acute Angle; 3) The myometrium between the gestational sac and the bladder became thinner, with a thickness of >3 mm; 4) Doppler flow image: trophoblast blood flow signal can be seen in the scar (low resistance blood flow)
Type II1) The gestating sac is partially implanted in the scar of the uterus, partially or mostly located in the uterine cavity, and a few may even reach the uterine cavity at the bottom of the uterus; 2)the gestational sac is significantly deformed, and elongated, and its the lower end presented a acute Angle; 3) The myometrium between the stretch and the bladder becomes thinner (3 mm in thickness); 4) color Doppler flow image: trophoblast blood flow signal (low resistance blood flow) can be seen in the scar.
Type III1) The gestating sac is completely implanted in the muscle layer of the scar of the uterus and protrudes outward toward the bladder; 2) Uterine cavity and cervical canal emptiness; 3) The myometrium between the gestational sac and the bladder was significantly thinner or absent, with a thickness of 3 mm; 4) color Doppler flow image: trophoblast blood flow signal (low resistance blood flow) can be seen in the scar. Among them, there is a special ultrasonic manifestation of cesarean scar pregnancy in type III, namely mass type, whose sonographic characteristics

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of blood loss

    blood loss

    Measured: delivery

  2. Incidence of postpartum hemorrhage

    postpartum hemorrhage

    Measured: delivery

  3. Incidence of maternal transfusion

    maternal transfusion

    Measured: delivery

  4. Incidence of spontaneous abortion

    spontaneous abortion

    Measured: delivery

  5. Incidence of stillbirth

    stillbirth

    Measured: delivery

  6. Incidence of perinatal death

    perinatal death

    Measured: 42 days postpartum

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maternal death

    Deaths during pregnancy or less than 42 days after termination of pregnancy

    Measured: At 24-28 weeks

  2. Maternal death

    Deaths during pregnancy or less than 42 days after termination of pregnancy

    Measured: 42 days postpartum

  3. The rate of repeated cesarean delivery

    Cesarean rate is defined as the number of cesarean delivery divided by the number of live births.

    Measured: At delivery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Blood Loss and Repeat Cesarean Section, run by Peking University Third Hospital.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Yangyu Zhao, MD (13701118357, zhaoyangyu@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of blood loss (time frame: delivery). The study lists 6 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 1 Aug 2022.
