About this study

Official title: Prophylactic Amnioinfusion for Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage: A Randomized Clinical Trial (PURPOSE)

The purpose of this study is to decrease the likelihood of composite postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) morbidity, which consists of i) Estimated or quantified blood loss of 1,500 mL or more, ii) transfusion of any blood products or iii) hysterectomy

Being tested
Saline delivered using an intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC)
Medical subject headings
Postpartum Hemorrhage

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Saline delivered using an intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC)Combination product

    An intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) will be placed in participants after membrane rupture, or at 4 cm if membranes previously ruptured. A 300cc bolus of normal saline will be administered. A continuous rate of 100 cc/hr of normal saline will continue until delivery to prevent Postpartum Hemorrhage. If the IUPC is dislodged, it will be replaced by a trained clinician.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Saline delivered using an intrauterine pressure catheter (IUPC) in people with Postpartum Hemorrhage, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston at 1 site in United States.

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 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2024. 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Sarah Mehl, MD ((712) 500-6412, Sarah.Theriot@uth.tmc.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants who have estimated or quantified blood loss of 1,500 mL or more (time frame: from delivery admission to discharge (average of 3 days post delivery)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Nov 2024.
