Last updated 2020-06-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Earlier studies describe the half-life of hPL in serum as being ninety minutes and that the hormone is excreted unchanged in urine; consequently, there is real potential to use the fall in hormone levels in urine to monitor bleeding in pregnancy, the outcome of natural and artificial abortions or placental health.

This study will focus on the fall of hPL following delivery by Caesarean section when women have a urinary catheter in place and sampling urine is simple to achieve.
