Summary

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), encompassing the terms placenta accreta, increta, and percreta; abnormally invasive placenta; morbidly adherent placenta; and invasive placentation, is a leading cause of life-threatening obstetric haemorrage (1) . Currently, more than 90% of women diagnosed with PAS also have a placenta praevia (2), and the combination of both conditions leads to high maternal morbidity and mortality due to massive haemorrhage at the time of birth . Maternal mortality of placenta praevia with percreta has been reported to be as high as 7% of cases .

Hydrogen peroxide is well-known for its antimicrobial and antiseptic properties. It is used to clean surgical cuts for better localization of bleeding focus in surgery and orthopedics and burn excisions to induce hemostasis . Topical application of hydrogen peroxide was proven to induce hemostasis and reduce operative time in both tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy .

Conditions

  • Placenta Accreta

Interventions

DRUG

packing placental site with hydrogen peroxide soaked towels

Skin is incised either midline or Pfannenstiel incision according to clinical situation , bladder dissection will be done , uterus will be incised by transverse lower segment incision , followed by delivery of the baby. Uterine massage , ecbolics \& a trial for delivery of the placenta will be done Irrigation of the placental bed with 100 ml 3% hydrogen peroxide , followed by packing with a towel highly soaked hydrogen peroxide solution (Pozitif Kimya, İstanbul, Turkey) , freshly prepared by a 50% dilution with a normal saline solution
