简要总结
The goal of this study is to determine the best dose of a drug called oxytocin, that is usually used to stop bleeding during a delivery, when used during a cesarean delivery. It will be administered during cesarean section in order to decrease the amount blood loss. The investigators are proposing to have 3 groups of subjects each given a different safe dose of oxytocin and then to assess the effectiveness of each regimens on the amount blood lost during cesarean sections.This will let use know which is the best lowest dose needed.
详细描述
This trial will be a randomized, blinded controlled trial that will be conducted at the American University of Beirut Medical Center Labor and Delivery Unit.
Identification of candidates:
- All women admitted to the Delivery Suite for elective cesarean delivery or needing cesarean delivery for obstetric reasons will be invited to participate in the study.
- Women will then be approached by the research assistants and/or investigators who will explain the objectives of the study and will ask eligible women to participate in the trial and sign a consent form.
Study subjects will be randomized using a computer-generated random number sequence stratified by elective or emergency cesarean section. At surgery, a sealed opaque envelope containing the randomization number and data sheet will be opened for each consenting patient.
