Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate that the tranexamic acid (TXA)Intravenous and oral, is equivalent oxytocin (OXY),intramuscularly, in reducing the blood loss in post partum period (mL) in patients at the end of pregnancy ( 37-42 w ) at low risk of post partum hemorrhage (PPH). The PPH means a blood loss equal to or greater than 500 ml after a vaginal delivery (the bleeding is defined severe if it exceeds 1000 mL). PPH is called "primary" when blood loss arose within 24 hours after birth.

Conditions
