NCT05013749

Brief Summary

Currently, Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) has two treatment options: hysterectomy (completely removing the uterus) and partial myometrial resection (resecting the part of the uterus affected by this pathology). The present study is a feasibility study of a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial to be carried out in 3 health institutions. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria, after signing the informed consent, will be taken to the surgical procedure and before the start of the procedure they will be randomized to one of the two interventions, hysterectomy or partial myometrial resection, intra-surgical clinical outcomes will be explored and a follow-up will be carried out during the immediate post-surgical period (72 hours), in 7 to 12 days and at 42 days postpartum. A sample size of 60 patients is estimated among the 3 health institutions, with an approximate duration of the study of 24 months.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Feasibility: Proportion of Eligible Patients Who Agree to Participate in the Study.

    Number of patients who agree to participate, out of the total number of eligible patients

    6 weeks

  • Screening Failure Percentage

    Percentage of patients who entered the study but did not present macroscopic findings of placenta accreta spectrum during laparotomy.

    During surgery

  • Percentage of Patients With Crossover Between Assigned Study Arms.

    All patients had been randomized before surgery to a certain procedure; however, after performing intraoperative staging, it was identified that some women did not have signs of PAS (7 patients with false positive prenatal diagnosis, randomized to hysterectomy), so they were managed with OSCS, and that some women did not meet the criteria to perform OSCS (9 patients randomized to OSCS), so they were managed with hysterectomy;

    During surgery

  • Number of Participants Who Completed the Follow-up Evaluation.

    Number of participants who completed follow-up at 42 days postpartum

    42 days postpartum

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Maternal Death

    6 weeks

  • Intra-surgical Bleeding Volume

    During surgery

  • Blood Component Transfusion Requirement

    Up to 42 days postpartum

  • Median Transfusion of Red Blood Cell Units (RBCU)

    Up to 42 days postpartum

  • Number of Patients Who Met at Least 1 Near Miss Criterion

    Up to 42 days postpartum

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Hysterectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Hysterectomy: An incision will be made above the level of the placenta, delivering the newborn. Uterotonics will be administered, and spontaneous delivery of the placenta will be awaited using gentle traction. The absence of spontaneous separation of the placenta will confirm the diagnosis of PAS, the patient will undergo to hysterectomy. The complete removal of the uterus will be attempted, including the cervix, the duration of the intervention and intraoperative blood loss will be recorded, as well as the damage to organs neighboring the uterus. In this arm of the study, to hysterectomy will be performed in 100% of patients

Procedure: Hysterectomy

Partial myometrial resection

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Partial myometrial resection: The technique described by Palacios-Jaraquemada et al5. will be followed. Briefly, the uterus will be dissected to free it from the posterior wall of the bladder to the cervix. The vesicouterine vessels will be ligated and the parametrial space will be visualized. The hysterotomy will be performed in the upper segment, immediately above the area of invasion of the myometrium. The entire invaded myometrium and the entire placenta will be removed. The uterus will repair itself in one or two layers. Intrauterine balloon tamponade will be used if indicated.

Model Details: Eligible women will receive complete information about the study. If they agree to participate in it, they will sign the informed consent for both interventions: hysterectomy and partial myometrial resection. The final modality of intervention will be decided at randomization prior to the start of the surgical procedure. If the diagnosis of PAS is confirmed by observing the clinical criteria endorsed by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO), the patient's participation in the study is confirmed and the surgical procedure defined by randomization is continued, that is, one of the two arms of the study: Primary hysterectomy or Partial myometrial resection.
