Cold balloon for postpartum bleeding study pulled before it began
NCT ID NCT02735733
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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 However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
