Efficacy of Carbetocin in Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage in Obese Versus Non Obese Women

Postpartum hemorrhage \[PPH\] can have serious consequences and is the leading cause of maternal mortality globally. Uterine contractility plays an important role in post-delivery uterine involution; impaired contractility can contribute to PPH. Should contractility be impaired among obese women, there would be implications for management. Therefore, the investigators sought to investigate whether obese women would also experience a need for more uterine agents during the management of an obstetric hemorrhage.
