New study tests rapid blood test to prevent bleeding emergencies in pregnancy
NCT ID NCT07616349
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a fast blood test called ROTEM can accurately estimate platelet counts in pregnant women who have low platelets or severe bleeding after delivery. The goal is to help doctors make quicker, safer decisions about anesthesia and blood transfusions. About 85 women will participate, and the study is observational, meaning no new treatments are being tested.
