Trial summary

Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a disease associated with abnormal placental adhesion and invasion. In recent years, the incidence of PAS has increased significantly, which can cause massive postpartum hemorrhage, hysterectomy,and even maternal mortality. Read more about this study

About this study

Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a disease associated with abnormal placental adhesion and invasion. In recent years, the incidence of PAS has increased significantly, which can cause massive postpartum hemorrhage, hysterectomy,and even maternal mortality. The research team of Peking university third hospital developed the ultrasound rating scale in china at first to conduct preliminary assessment of the PAS risk which can identify the severity of cases. In a basis of ultrasound, plan to explore the MRI for the the investigators diagnosis of PAS according to some specific PAS features, like the the uneven signal intensity , the myometrial discontinuity, and black band on T2 image, and finally established a MRI scoring system of PAS. MRI score system of PAS can reduce the subjective difference of the clinician's visual reading, and assist the clinician to assess the risk of sever PAS further, and conduct perioperative preparation to reduce the risk of maternal morbidity and mortality to achieve a better clinical outcome.

Read the detailed description

Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a disease associated with abnormal placental adhesion and invasion. In recent years, the incidence of PAS has increased significantly, and the main risk is high hysterectomy rate,massive postpartum hemorrhage, and even maternal mortality in women at childbearing age. The research team of Peking university third hospital developed the ultrasound rating scale in china at first to conduct preliminary assessment of the PAS risk which can identify the severity of cases and guide the junior hospitals to transfer. Peking University third hospital is in the leading position in the preoperative diagnosis of PAS currently.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a common method for preoperative evaluation for sever cases. MRI can provide a map of the placenta and PAS features, like the uterus enlarged significantly, the uneven signal intensity , the myometrial discontinuity, and black band on T2 image. It has a high diagnostic value. At present, only Lim and Ueno reported MRI scoring system for PAS. Due to the small sample size and the limitation of the research methods, a widely applicable rating scale has not been established. MRI score system of PAS can reduce the subjective difference of the clinician's visual reading, and assist the clinician to assess the risk of sever PAS further, and conduct perioperative preparation to reduce the risk of maternal morbidity and mortality and achieve a better clinical outcome.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Rate of PAS diagnosed

    diagnose as PAS through clinical observation or specimen pathology after surgery

    Measured: one week after surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Blood loss volume(ml)

    The blood loss volume during the 24 hours after surgery

    Measured: 24 hours after surgery

  2. Rate of hysterectomy

    Number of patients who were performed hysterectomy/Number of patients with PAS

    Measured: two weeks after surgery

  3. Rate of preterm labor

    The number of patients who delivered between 28 to 36+6 weeks/Number of patients with PAS

    Measured: two weeks after surgery

  4. Blood transfusion volume(ml)

    the volume of blood transfusion

    Measured: two weeks after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Placenta Accreta, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lian Chen (+8613811748746, bysychenlian@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of PAS diagnosed (time frame: one week after surgery). 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 5 Nov 2019.
