Simple ultrasound may spot hidden bladder scarring in C-Section moms

NCT ID NCT07523698

First seen Apr 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study tested whether an ultrasound can detect adhesions (scar tissue) between the bladder and uterus in pregnant women who have had a previous C-section. Researchers measured the thickness of tissue between the bladder and uterus and checked if the uterus slides normally when the woman breathes deeply. The goal was to see if these ultrasound signs differ between women with and without prior C-sections, potentially offering a non-invasive way to identify adhesions before delivery.
