Summary

The purpose of this study will be to evaluate a standardized, evidence-based protocol versus a conventional approach for the dosing of oxytocin in vaginal delivery.

Conditions

  • Uterine Atony
  • Postpartum Hemorrhage

Interventions

DRUG

Oxytocin

500 mL bag of oxytocin (30 IU / 500 mL) to be connected to the IV, and controlled at the obstetricians request. Up to two, 50 mL rapid infusion boluses to be given after delivery of anterior shoulder. Upon completing the bolus(es) flow rate should be continued at 100 mL / hour. This should total no more than 4.5 hours.

DRUG

Oxytocin

A total of two 1000 mL bags of oxytocin (20 IU/ 1000 mL) are to be connected to the IV sequentially, and controlled at the obstetricians request, are each to be administered over 8 hours after delivery of anterior shoulder in vaginal delivery. This will total 16 hours of oxytocin infusion.
