Detecting Hypercoagulability in Morbidly Obese and Non Obese Parturients Following Cesarean Section Delivery

NCT02718924 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2018-11-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Investigators hypothesized that the impact of surgery in terms of inducing a hypercoagulable state is more evident in morbidly obese pregnant women as opposed to their non-obese counterparts. The aim of this study is to investigate the change in coagulation status of morbidly obese and non-obese pregnant women following cesarean section delivery using thromboelastometry. This observational study would also make it possible to calculate the sample size for a future prospective controlled clinical trial to compare the incidence of Hypercoagulability in morbidly obese parturients as opposed to their non-obese counterparts. To the best of our knowledge, no other work has been done any in this area.
