This study tested two medicines, methylergonovine and carboprost, to see which works better for heavy bleeding after a cesarean delivery caused by the uterus not contracting properly. 100 women who had bleeding despite standard treatment were randomly assigned to one of the two d…

This study looked at 200 first-time mothers who had a normal vaginal delivery to find the best time to give carbetocin, a drug that helps prevent severe bleeding after birth. The goal was to see if giving it earlier or later reduces the need for extra treatments and side effects.…

This study looked at 90 women who had severe bleeding after childbirth (postpartum hemorrhage). Researchers used a device called Sonoclot to quickly measure how well their blood was clotting. The goal was to see if this test could help doctors spot clotting problems early and gui…

This study looked at how the painkiller ketorolac affects blood clotting in 40 women after planned C-sections. Researchers used special tests to measure platelet function. The goal was to understand bleeding risk, not to treat a disease. Results may help guide safer pain manageme…

This study looked at 1,000 women with autoimmune diseases (like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis) who had a C-section. The goal was to find out how often severe bleeding (postpartum hemorrhage) happens and what raises that risk. The results could help doctors better prevent bleeding…

This study looked at 649 women who had severe bleeding after a C-section to understand what happened to them. Researchers tracked how many needed blood transfusions, intensive care, or other treatments. The goal was to learn more about the causes and outcomes of this dangerous co…

This study looked at whether a tool called the Obstetric Comorbidity Index can predict severe health problems in women who have a C-section and experience heavy bleeding. Researchers reviewed the records of 583 patients to see how well the index worked. The goal is to help doctor…
