Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Uterine tonus

    The effect of carbetocin on uterine tone will be evaluated by the surgical team using a numerical scoring scale between 0-10. A score of 0 will indicate atony, and a score of 10 will indicate full contraction.

    For 30 minutes after carbetocin administration.

  • Additional uterotonic drug requirement

    If the uterine tone is 7 or below, the surgical team will perform uterine massage, and in patients who do not see a sufficient increase in uterine tone, an additional uterotonic, 0.2 mg methylergonavine (Methyl ampoule 0.2 mg/ml) will be administered IM by the anesthesia team and recorded.

    For 30 minutes after carbetocin administration.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Intraoperative bleeding

    from drug administration to the end of surgery.

  • Mean Blood Pressure

    Intraoperatively every 5 minutes

  • Heart Rate

    Intraoperatively every 5 minutes
