Study Summary

This trial will help determine if an intrauterine balloon tamponade placed to control postpartum hemorrhage is just as effective when used for shorter durations of time.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women at Denver Health who've had an IUBT placed for postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony. Participants must be adults able to consent, not have clotting disorders or be on anticoagulants, and can't refuse blood transfusions. Those with fetal demise or nonviable births, or are incarcerated are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if a shorter duration (6 hours) of intrauterine balloon tamponade is as effective as the standard longer duration (18 hours) in controlling postpartum hemorrhage without increasing blood loss or related morbidity.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed, potential risks may include discomfort from the balloon tamponade, possible infection risk from prolonged device placement, and complications related to ineffective hemorrhage control.
