Brief 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 . Currently, more than 90% of women diagnosed with PAS also have a placenta praevia , 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 . Adrenaline has also been demonstrated to be a reasonable hemostatic agent because of its low cost, low risk, powerful vasoconstrictor, and platelet aggregation. Topical use of adrenaline is an effective and reasonable hemostatic agent in tonsillectomy.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
control of intra-operative bleeding from surgical field.
control of intra-operative bleeding from surgical field if bleeding stopped , or minimal oozing , towel are not soaked with blood and improvement of general condition with no hemoglobin drop.
30 minutes after application of topical drug
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Need for hemostatic sutures , uterine artery ligation , internal iliac artery ligation , hysterectomy
if bleeding continued 30 minutes after topical drugs
immediate maternal complications ( postpartum haemorrage , DIC , hysterectomy , maternal mortality , ICU admission , …)
24 hours after delivery
Study Arms (2)
Topical Adrenaline Group
EXPERIMENTALTopical adrenaline group
Warm saline Group
PLACEBO COMPARATORWarm saline Group
Interventions
Skin is incised midline sub-umbilical incision , bladder dissection will be done , uterus will be incised by vertical upper segment incision , followed by delivery of the baby. Surgical assessment and decision for either conservative management or CS hysterectomy will be done. After completion of surgical procedure , surgical field is observed for major bleeding and patients are subjected to intervention Packing the pelvic surgical field with towels fully saturated with adrenaline 1:10000 solution.
