Clinical Trial to evalute the Efficacy and Safety of Hyaluronidase for Vaginal Delivery in Nulliparous Wome

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium
Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital Seoul
Brief Summary

In this study, we compared the incidence of episiotomy, severe perineal trauma, and improvement of perineal edema between HAase injection and placebo groups. Despite a lower proportion of episiotomy and severe perineal laceration (third- and fourth-degree lacerations) in the HAase injection group compared with the placebo group (52.7% vs 62.0% and 5.1% vs 9.1%, respectively), there was no statistically significant difference. But the women receiving HAase injection had significantly improved perineal edema at 24 hours compared with those receiving placebo (p=0.01). No serious adverse events were noted in both groups.
