About this study

Official title: Effect of Intravenous Hyoscine Butylbromide Injection on the Course and Duration of First Stage of Labour in Primigavidae

A case control study conducted on 120 women coming to Cairo University Maternity Hospital .Patients who meet the inclusion criteria were asked to participate in the study and a verbal consent was obtained from each patient. Patients will be divided into three equal groups (A, B, C). A single dose of the drug (placebo or HBB 20mg or HBB 40 mg) will be injected intravenously slowly to groups A, B, C respectively. Labouring mothers will be monitored in bed. Vaginal examination will be conducted every two hours. The duration of the first stage was calculated from the time of cervical dilatation of three to four centimeters in active labour until a fully dilated cervix will be observed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing hyoscine butylbromide and saline in people with Vaginal Delivery, run by Ahmed M Maged, MD.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

first stage duration (time frame: 12 hours after drug intake). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Dec 2021.
