Uterotonics play an essential role in the pharmacological management of uterine atony. Carbetocin, a long acting analog of oxytocin has been recommended as a first line uterotonic for PPH prophylaxis at cesarean delivery. Considering many woman have associated comorbidities and are at high risk of PPH, finding alternative pharmacological agents is essential. Calcium is a key factor for myometrial contractions and calcium blood levels can be low at the end of pregnancy. Both hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia could lead to a decrease in myometrial contractions. It is already been demonstrated that in both desensitized and naïve myometrium, normocalcemia provides a better uterine tone compared to hypo and hypercalcemia when oxytocin is given as the first uterotonic drug.\n\nCurrently, the role of extracelullar calcium in carbetocin- induced contractility is unknown. This will be the first ex vivo study to test the effects of extracellular calcium on oxytocin pretreated and naive myometrium. The results of this study will provide evidence on the use of this safe drug in clinical practice, particularly in women with labour arrest, and provide alternative pharmacological strategies to both prevention and treatment of PPH, thus improving our clinical practice.\n\nThe investigators hypothesize that extracellular normocalcemia would provide superior carbetocin-mediated contractility in both naive and oxytocin-pretreated myometrium compared with hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia.",[108],"Postpartum Hemorrhage (Primary)",[110,111,112,113],"carbetocin","calcium","uterine contraction","cesarean delivery","2025-09-22",{"date":116,"type":117},"2025-09-24","ACTUAL",{"date":119,"type":117},"2025-09-15",{"date":121,"type":102},"2026-06",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
