Summary

This document defines the Clinical Investigation Protocol for a study designed to determine whether blood loss after spontaneous vaginal delivery is altered by the addition of misoprostol administration to the standard use of intravenous oxytocin after delivery. The protocol is an open-label randomized prospective trial to be carried out at Queens Hospital Center.

Blood loss will be measured indirectly by comparing the maternal hemoglobin and hematocrit levels on admission in labor to those obtained within 24 hours after delivery.
