Post-Partum Hemorrhage (PPH) is a common obstetrical complication. It may occur after both vaginal and cesarean delivery with a reported prevalence of 4-6% of deliveries [1]. Prophylactic treatment with oxytocin after fetus extraction is a common practice. [1,2]Transexamic acid - Hexakapron is a potent antifibrinolytic, it prevents lysine adhesion to plasminogen molecules by blocking its binding site. It can lower fibrinolysis rate and by that reduce bleeding [9]. Systematic treatment of anti-fibrinolytic drugs is in surgical practice after procedures such as coronary artery bypass graft, orthopedic surgeries and liver transplantation [10-13]. Hexakapron is an FDA approved drug, it is defined as a class B drug for pregnancy and lactation [12], it is already being used in a non-routine fashion in the delivery room during PPH.In obstetrics Hexakapron given before vaginal or cesarean delivery has been presumed to decrease blood loss and PPH. 2 studies that included 453 woman reported decrease in PPH (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.36 to 0.72) [13-15]. However specific protocols for prophylactic treatment with Hexakapron as available with oxytocin are lacking, and further research is necessary to determine such guidelines [16].

Maelezo

During placental delivery fibrinogen and fibrin degradation and plasminogen activation occurs. This causes fibrinolytic cascade that continues 6-10 hours post-partum [7]. Tissue injury during cesarean section may convert the hemostatic equilibrium towards fibrinolysis that results in excessive bleeding [8]/ Transexamic acid - Hexakapron is a potent antifibrinolytic, it prevents lysine adhesion to plasminogen molecules by blocking its binding site. It can lower fibrinolysis rate and by that reduce bleeding [9]. Systematic treatment of anti-fibrinolytic drugs is in surgical practice after procedures such as coronary artery bypass graft, orthopedic surgeries and liver transplantation [10-13]. Hexakapron is an FDA approved drug, it is defined as a class B drug for pregnancy and lactation [12], it is already being used in a non-routine fashion in the delivery room during PPH.

In obstetrics Hexakapron given before vaginal or cesarean delivery has been presumed to decrease blood loss and PPH. 2 studies that included 453 woman reported decrease in PPH (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.36 to 0.72) [13-15]. However specific protocols for prophylactic treatment with Hexakapron as available with oxytocin are lacking, and further research is necessary to determine such guidelines [16].

PPH jeopardize young reproductive women's health, it is specifically related to major morbidity in the context of prior anemia which features this population in high rates [17]. PPH is the major maternal cause of death, with 100000 cases per year [6].

Thus the investigators sought to investigate the efficacy of Hexakapron, as a prophylactic treatment after vaginal delivery and cesarean section, in reducing PPH.

Matokeo

Hatua za Matokeo ya Msingi

1. Decrease post-partum hemoglobin decline. [24 month]

Assessment of the hemoglobin decline - the decline will be calculated as the gap between the hemoglobin level prior delivery and the the hemoglobin measured 48-72 hours post delivery.

Hatua za Matokeo ya Sekondari

1. Decrease PPH. [24 month]

rates of Post-partum hemorrhage will be assessed by The difference between the groups

2. Decrease the need for post-partum uterine manual revision. [24 month]

rates of Post-partum uterine manual revision will be assessed by The difference between the groups the difference will be assessed by a chi-square test.
