Intramuscular versus intravenous prophylactic oxytocin for the third stage of labour following vaginal delivery: A randomised controlled trial

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

Prevention of postpartum haemorrhage is essential in the pursuit of improved health care for women. In this study investigators aimed to compare intramuscular oxytocin with intravenous oxytocin for the routine prevention of postpartum haemorrhage in women who deliver vaginally.In some countries, intravenous access can not be provided easily . Intramuscular application is faster , easier and tougher enforcement requires less skill and equipment . For this reason, less educated , which can be applied by those offering health services .
