Summary

This study aimed to see if using cold saline to inflate a balloon inside the uterus could reduce blood loss after childbirth better than room temperature saline. It was designed for women aged 18-45 who had just given birth vaginally and had uncontrolled bleeding. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
