Study Details

To determine the effectiveness of using two medications simultaneously versus one medication, as is standard of care, in preventing early postpartum hemorrhage. There have been studies that looked at giving two medications and that there were reduced odds of postpartum hemorrhage. Specific Aim 1: Determine if double simultaneous uterotonic agent regimen (misoprostol and oxytocin) is superior to single agent (oxytocin only) in reducing postpartum hemorrhage. Specific Aim 2: Determine any potential side effects of a double simultaneous uterotonic agentregimen (misoprostol and oxytocin) versus a single agent (oxytocin only).

Arms

  • Active Comparator: Intravenous Oxytocin only
    Patients will receive standard postpartum Oxytocin IV per protocol
  • Experimental: Misoprostol plus intravenous Oxytocin
    Patients will receive standard postpartum Oxytocin IV per protocol and also be given Misoprostol 400 mcg sublingual

Primary Outcome Measure

Determine if double simultaneous uterotonic agent regimen (misoprostol and oxytocin) is superior to single agent (oxytocin only) in changing postpartum hemorrhage blood loss volume. [ Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year ]
