This trial investigates whether giving calcium gluconate right after umbilical cord clamping can reduce blood loss during vaginal delivery. Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal complications, and calcium is known to help with uterine contractions and clotting. Abo…

This trial investigates whether giving calcium gluconate intravenously after umbilical cord clamping can reduce blood loss during elective cesarean deliveries. Calcium is essential for blood clotting and uterine muscle contraction, and low calcium levels are linked to heavier ble…

This trial compares two durations of cervical ripening balloon placement—3 hours versus the standard 12 hours—in pregnant women undergoing labor induction. The goal is to see if a shorter balloon time reduces the overall time from insertion to delivery while maintaining safety an…

This study looks at how metamizole (Optalgin), a common painkiller, changes the levels of blood thinners (apixaban or rivaroxaban) in cancer patients. Researchers will measure drug concentrations at several time points in 30 adults. The goal is to understand if metamizole interfe…

This study is for preterm infants who need breathing help. It tests whether a low or high air flow rate changes carbon dioxide levels in their blood. 45 babies will be monitored for three hours at each flow setting. The goal is to find the safest and most effective flow rate for …
