C-Section drug study targets bleeding risk in diabetic moms

NCT ID NCT06285396

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how three common blood pressure medications (ephedrine, phenylepinephrine, and norepinephrine) affect the ability of the uterus to contract after a C-section in women with type 2 or gestational diabetes. Researchers will take small tissue samples from the uterus during surgery and test the drugs in the lab. The goal is to understand why diabetic women have a higher risk of severe bleeding after delivery and how to choose safer medications.
