Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

the study aims to evaluate the efficacy of intramyometrial Terlipressin injection versus intramyometrial Carbetocin injection on hemoglobin level in women undergoing abdominal myomectomy. Moreover, to evaluate their efficacy in decreasing blood loss on operative time and to describe the injection sequelae for the same population. This clinical study will be conducted in compliance with the clinical study protocol and applicable regulatory requirements.

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, comparative, double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial and multi-center study that will be conducted at Wael ElBanna Clinic and the NRC site. The study participants' relevant medical records will be collected and reviewed after obtaining informed consent for the participants. Data will be pooled and presented in aggregate, without the identification of individual subjects.

The study materials that will be used will include blood tests and ultrasound. The study will involve three study arms:

  • Arm 1: intramyometrial Terlipressin injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets.

  • Arm 2: intramyometrial Carbetocin injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets.

  • Arm 3: intramyometrial saline injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets(placebo).

Subjects who meet diagnostic requirements as listed in the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in the study. Women will be randomized to one of the three arms using a computer-generated randomization table with a 1:1:1 group allocation

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: intramyometrial Terlipressin injection

intramyometrial Terlipressin injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets. (After the uterus has been reached, the Foley's urethral catheter will be adapted as a uterine tourniquet and will be applied at the base of the uterus before enucleating the fibroid masses. intramural Terlipressin will be injected, and then the uterine incision is done and the surgeon can now separate out the fibroids with ease and then amount of blood loss is calculated)

Drug: Terlipressin
intramyometrial Terlipressin versus carbitocin versus saline(placebo) injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets.
Other Names:
