The Effectiveness of a Care Bundle to Prevent Postpartum Hemorrhage After Cesarean Delivery
A study testing A care bundle in people with Cesarean Delivery, run by Dunjin Chen.
Trial summary
Delays in the detection or inconsistent use of effective interventions of postpartum hemorrhage can result in complications or death. We designed a cluster-randomized trial to assess a multi-component strategy for the detection and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage after cesarean delivery. Read more about this study

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
A care bundleOther
- Risk evaluation for PPH and Reserve plan;
- Assess blood loss using Estimated Blood Loss Form and amnion fluid collection drape;
- Satisfy any of the following conditions: i. If the estimated blood loss reaches 500ml but is less than 1000ml, and any of the following abnormal indicators are present; ii. If the estimated blood loss reaches 1000ml, no other indicators need to be considered: 1) Lack of uterine contractions 2) Persistent bleeding 3)Shock index (heart rate/systolic blood pressure) was greater than 0.9 Initiate the following protocols①, ②, ③, ④
- Maintain uterus tone (Administration of Oxytocin and second-line medications to promote uterine contraction)

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Incidence of PPH
defined by a calculated estimated blood loss > 1000 mL [Calculated estimated blood loss = estimated blood volume × (preoperative hematocrit - postoperative hematocrit)/preoperative hematocrit (where estimated blood volume (mL) = weight (Kg) × 85)] or red blood cell (RBC) transfusion before day 2 postpartum .
Measured: Day 2
Secondary outcomes (7)
mean total calculated blood loss
Calculated estimated blood loss = estimated blood volume × (preoperative hematocrit - postoperative hematocrit)/preoperative hematocrit (where estimated blood volume (mL) = weight (Kg) × 85)]
Measured: Day 2
Estimated blood loss
Estimated intraoperative and postoperative blood loss at 24 hours
Measured: postpartum 24 hours
Incidence of postpartum transfusion
infusion of RBC, plasma, platelet, or cryo et al
Measured: baseline
Incidence of additional operations performed outside cesarean section
Additional operations include B-Lnych, uterine artery suture, partial hysterectomy, hysterectomy et al
Measured: baseline
Incidence of transfer to intensive care unit
transfer to intensive care unit
Measured: baseline
Incidence of maternal death from any cause
maternal death from any cause
Measured: Up to 42 days
The adherence to the treatment bundle
defined adherence to at least four core bundle elements: risk evaluation for PPH and reserve plan, maintaining uterus tone (administration of oxytocin and second-line medications to promote uterine contraction), intravenous infusion, administered tranexamic acid
Measured: intraoperation and postpartum 24 hours
