| Intervention |
randomised controlled trial |
The eligible women will be allocated to one of the 2 study groups: Group A (N=200) will receive oral tranexamic acid 1 gm at the end of first stage of labor along with AMTSL and Group B (N= 200) will receive AMTSL without oral TXA. AMTSL includes administration of Injection oxytocin 10 units IM(preferred) within one minute of birth of baby for prophylaxis of PPH. Objectives are to study the efficacy of prophylactic oral tranexamic acid as an adjunct to Active Management of Third Stage of Labor in reducing blood loss at the time of placental separation and immediate postpartum period in high risk vaginal deliveries, to determine the incidence of PPH in 2 groups (with and without oral tranexamic acid) and to study side effects of oral tranexamic acid in the medication group. Dose-1gram, frequency -single dose to be given at the end of first stage of labor,route of administration-oral, total duration of intervention - 24hours |

Brief Summary
|
WHO trial has shown that IV tranexamic acid is effective in management of PPF but at lower level health facilities or home deliveries, parenteral administration is not practicable. In such situation, oral tranexamic acid if found to be effective in reducing blood loss after delivery, can be used by the concerned health care providers/ low resources set up areas. As high risk parturients for obstetrical haemorrhage may be the one that would benefit the most from prophylactic tranexamic acid. |
