Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Placenta praevia and accreta spectrum disorders are rising in incidence due to increased rate of repeat caesarean sections. Peripartum hysterectomy remains the only definitive treatment of massive postpartum haemorrhage related to this condition. A multitude of conservative treatments is described in literature, which includes pelvic devascularization under radiological control, myometrial resection with placenta in situ, and various suturing techniques some involving inversion of cervix. Variable success rates are described, but search continues for a simple, safe and effective treatment. Such a surgical technique i.e. A. Chohan Continuous Squeezing Suture (ACCSS) is described in this study for controlling haemorrhage from the lower uterine segment at caesarean section for placenta praevia and accrete spectrum disorders.
